I love this photo. It was taken by Ashley Hargrave (all praises due in capturing such a perfect moment with her camera.) Once we were in Sevilla for the first night we had quite the itch to see the sun, but especially the grand ocean. The beach was so close, and as they sometimes say: One must cease the day, so that we did. We hopped on a bus to Cadiz, which only took one hour, and in less time than we could imagine we were shirts off and taking in the rays of one of the largest beaches i have seen. It really was wide. Suddenly, the idea that we had followed through with seemed like the greatest idea that man, in his long history, had ever come up with. Even though the water was ( i'm pretty sure) below zero degrees, all three of us braved the fierce and icy waters of the Atlantic Ocean.  All of us were in at one point. At first we were skipping rocks, as you can see in the photo, but gradually, with the time passing and the sun getting hotter by te second, we jumped in.  Matt, more than anyone else, was in the icy waters. This man braved the waters for nearly an hour. what an impressive day.
