Setting for the encounter between Pip and the escaped convict, Magwitch, in Dickens 'Great Expectations'
That's true, it's a really classical view, a bit "cliché" with the sun on the sea, two horses whitch running on the sand...
But, with the cold rain outside and the grey sky of today, this feeling is so... cool...
Yeah, ok Olivier, I think it's defitively necessary that I clean my "capteur"... :D
On Friday, February 7, 2014, high school and middle school students dashed into the icy Atlantic as part of Special Olympics Virginia’s largest fundraiser: The Polar Plunge and the Cool School Challenge.
“Raising one million dollars for the fourth year in a row is incredible,” said Rick Jeffrey, Special Olympics Virginia president. “More importantly, though, these funds will help us to build bigger, better, more inclusive communities across the state of Virginia.”
In addition to the money raised, they got to take the icy dip into the Atlantic, all while earning a Friday “pass” from school, earn community service credit, Costume contests – prizes for best dressed male and female, prizes for teacher or team sponsor, and freezing photos.

This image taken with the GoPro has water splashes and weird colours, but who cares.
The water was so warm. It was awesome. The air temperature humidex value was just below 40 degrees C. July 6, Mew Lake, Mew Lake campground, Algonquin Provincial Park, Canada.

well today was possibly the hottest day ever in T.O. (at least it felt that way). Oh and plus there was a power outage, so I decided to cool off with the hose

Folded and assembled from 6 rectangles of Japanese Duo-coloured paper-backed foil of 2x1 proportion [15cm x 7.5cm]. The assembly is as per the "Snowflake Module" - www.flickr.com/photos/61236172@N08/6444797547/in/photostr...
No diagrams yet but this is a very simple fold very similar to the "Heart on Fan" model - www.flickr.com/photos/61236172@N08/7419035316/in/set-7215...
I would recommend paper-backed foil for this module as normal Kami does not work well...unless you cheat by adding something sticky like double-sided tapes. An 8-piece version using the Wind Rose or Compass Rose modules is possible.

As I mentioned in my earlier post of Crown Fountain, kids (and adults more adventurous than me) like to play in the water it "spits" down every so often. It was a fun sight to see. As soon as the spray started, kids would start squeeling and scrambling to be at the ideal spot to get soaked. I have to admit that it did look a bit tempting, since it was over 90 degrees out.
