We did our training in March. The water and air temperatures were still pretty low. A few more degrees colder and that training would have been cancelled.No soup, no fortified coffee....
Speaking of sea salt. Once when dining out the place served everyone at the table from a long silver tray. The meat, starch and vegetables were all on a steaming hot tray that the waiter balanced on his arm. There were either 8 or 10 people at the table. Anyway the meat was so hot that the waiter started sweating. The sweat ran down his face and was dripping on the last 2 pieces of chicken on the platter. It was nasty. Good thing I got the meat from the front of the tray. Enjoy your lunch everyone.
