After another frightening experience, I had enough of swimming for the day and I just practiced diving under the waves near the beach with Nina from the Westside team.

Swimming nightmare continues
Went out to Santa Monica pier 26 to swim with the Westside team this morning at 6:30 AM. It was foggy and visibility was around 30 feet. The waves were a good height and I practiced swimming out to the buoy which is about 0.2 miles out. I was coming back to shore and a got knocked upside down by a wave that broke right on top of me. As I was gasping for air I noticed by goggles near my face and I grabbed them right in the nick of time. I'm so lucky I didn't look my prescription goggles or I'd have to order another pair.
