english: Strange mixture of feelings: it was extremely warm by this stage, a lot of open water around, and of course, elated that I'd got there under my own steam, but starting to really realize that my chances of making it all the way across to Canada, which was still 400 miles away, were slim at best.
non_english: Rare, gemengde gevoelens:  het was extreem warm in dat stadium, heel veel open water om me heen. Ik was uitgelaten dat ik daar  op eigen kracht was gekomen, maar ik begon me ook te realiseren dat mijn kansen om over te steken naar Canada, nog steeds 650 kilometer ver, op z'n best erg klein waren.
