Spoke to the pilot this evening- the weather is going to be very iffy tomorrow, and he feels we should wait for Monday to take advantage of better weather conditions, so no swim tomorrow. That's how this stuff goes, and I trust my pilot, so it's all good.
Instead of swimming to France tomorrow, we are planning to go to Dover Castle with a friend of mine from high school who now lives in London and is going to come down to hang with us after I get in a training swim in the harbor in the morning. It should be a great day and it gives us a little more time to double check all our supplies and be sure we're ready to go as soon as we get the call (not that we weren't already, but it never hurts to double check everything...again!)
Here's another article that turned up in the Boston Globe this weekend:
