Day 16: I'm Swiiiimmin' in the Rain.... (J)

---------------------------------------------
Chill day today.  Went to the gym, wandered around Ala Moana Shopping Center for a little bit, then headed off to get some much needed alone time with the ocean.  To my initial dismay, it started to rain as soon as I got in.  Not wanting to be cheated of my "life contemplation" swim for the day, I proceeded to go for it anyway.  I gotta say-- it was a really cool experience.  The water was still super clear and calm, it was still sunny, and the rain cooled me off as I swam my pseudo-laps.  It was pretty surreal to breath to the side and see paddle boarders, the sunset on the horizon, and the droplets of rain making tiny rainbows all in one quick snapshot.

Unfortunately, I had neither my trusty Elph, nor my disposable underwater camera at hand.  However, because I would never allow a blog post without some type of image attached, I dutifully recreated today's magical swim on my laptop's standard "Paint" program.         (Please note: I do not have a mouse here.) --(John)
