This is the beginning of October. It was a sunny day and I took my boat to go to beach.
The air temperature in Istanbul is around 25 degrees. The sea water temperature is still 22 degrees. Since the seasons have shifted, I can now swim in October. I broke the record by swimming in November last year.
The sea water was very warm today and I comfortably swam in this month. The beach was quite empty. In normal season, the beach belonged to the business and I had to pay a fee. This season I had the chance to walk on the beach for the first time.
I collected mussel shells on the beach. I will make a painting out of them and hang it on my wall.
It is quite peaceful to swim in these months. less people, less noise, more nature...
Life is beautiful as you accumulate quality moments.
