Photo of the day: Swimming under the Penang sun, luckily not in the River Seine

8:20 PM MYT

 

A woman spends her Sunday afternoon swimming at the pool of her condominium in Penang, with the calm, clear and cool aqua-blue body of water surrounding her.

Despite keeping fit, taking a dip also helps the body cool down as the island sun hits especially during midday. Fortunately, temperatures in the area were recorded to only be a maximum of 31°C today, with a dash of rain – making it an ideal day for swimming. – August 4, 2024
