Finding a way to swim – Tahiti

North American flights to Tahiti land in Papeete at 1:30 a.m. and small planes fly to the local islands only in daylight. After thirty-six hours on airplanes and twelve hours of airport stopovers, I arrived on Moorea, one of the most popular Tahitian islands. This extended travel time compromised my well-being. My muscles were stiffer and I was more immobile than I wanted to be. What was the best way to deal with it? My best option is always to SWIM! 

A Princess cruise ship was anchored in the harbour. The water was tranquil, clear, and inviting. I donned a swimsuit, slipped into the water and began my swim across the harbour and around the cruise ship. On my return to the shore, fifty minutes later, I was met by my travel companion, Carl.

“Do you know how deep that water is?  Forty metres!  Do you know how long you were out there?” he said, clearly upset and angry. “If you run into problems there is nothing I can do to help you!”

In my mind, running into problems is not ever a consideration, much to the consternation of my friends and loved ones. I am comfortable and confident in my ability in the water (unless MS spasm becomes aggressive). Over the years, I have realized that things can and do happen to the most competent of swimmers. To maintain peace between Carl and I, for the next three weeks, my swim consisted of lapsback and forth, twelve feet out from shore. Looking always for the positive and advantageous aspects in my circumstances, rather than frustration, I chose admiration of the large variety of coloured tropical fish that swam in groups beneath me.
