Notes from the South Bay

September 18

Morning Fog over the Bay

The fog lay on the water in an even layer, and the boats by the breakwater seemed to hang in white. I went out earlier than usual, while the promenade was still empty and all you could hear was the ropes knocking against the masts.

At first you can't see past a few metres. Then the shoreline appears over the water, and the fog slowly drifts out toward the open sea.

Mornings like this are best spent without a phone: a few steps on wet boards and a quiet broken only by the gulls.
