Grace in action

We spent the day at Mudeford Quay today surrounded by swans.  



For the first hour the harbour was tranquil, very little waves or boat movement.  But at midday the tide turned and suddenly the harbour was a flurry of eddies and waves.

The swans though showed no sign of the extra effort required; they continued to float along gracefully whilst underneath they must have been working like mad.

I am no swan, but I aspire to the grace these displayed.
