I am NOT a fan of cold water! Just standing in the waves took my breath away!!
Me, neither :) I have a permanent injury from scuba diving in Lake Geneva in October. Went down to see a wreck and I came near to getting hypothermia. As it was for the next two hours my fingers and toes were frozen like carrot sticks and the combination of water pressure and cold water on my right ear was like having an icicle stuck in my ear. I was lucky it didn't turn out worse, but as it is my circulation has never been the same sense, in either my limbs or my right ear. Can't deal with cold like I used to. Like warm water, though :)
