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.

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.
