I must admit, if I was in London and swam for that team I would have definitely signed up for the fund-raiser. How awesome is that?! Swimming the English Channel *and* raising money for a maternity hospital in Afghanistan. An opportunity beyond anything I could imagine on both fronts.
ReplyDeleteHey Maus - if you go swim the English Channel, we'll raise money for the feminist cause of your choice. I bet you could find some liberal-minded swim friends online too.
ReplyDeleteElena - wow - pirates... I love it.
