curiously, this reminds me of my first experience with LSD..

I surfed from about midnight to first light..(full moon..red tide), and recall that visceral connection between breathe,body,water,wave and tides.

I wonder what Leni was on..other than a heavy dose of Wagnerian nature worship?

i can imagine the bioluminescent water of that experience was unreal, to say the least, Dr!
