First swim of the season

Sirmione, Lake Garda. It's been a hot day and we had a walk along the shore. The lake was still and inviting but I doubt the water was warm... Anyhow these boys indulged in a series of dives 
then walked back with their towels thrown nonchanlantly on their shoulders.

    They are young and healthy; a swim to start the season will invigorate them.

    Young men must walk nonchalantly...it's required. Nobody will ever know they are freezing and terrified.

    I used to have a body like that. Many moons ago.

    It won't be long until the water is warm and you'll be ready to dive in too.

    I used to spend time like them in the river, jumping from a narrow boat. What a moment :).
