Had an 'acclimatisation' swim this morning in a sheltered bay - excellent. Air temp 35 degrees, water temp 25 degrees. Wind in the open strait 25 knots plus - i.e. gale force. Lots of white horses. Doing the course by boat this afternoon. Decision on whether to swim will be made in the morning but organisers are not too confident that it will proceed. Actually, they said that they do not formally cancel but they may advise swimmers not to swim. If no go, we will do a similar distance along the coast in sheltered waters. Let's see tomorrow

In Canakkale. Terrible night's sleep. Air con not working and lots of outside noise.
