I received the World Water Swim e-newsletter and took an interest in an item - an upcoming golden gate swim has been cancelled due.
a note states 'All swimmers who registered for this 4/1 Thursday 's Golden Gate Bridge to Aquatic Park swim will receive a full refund of fees paid to WWS or credit for next month's swim due to the emptying of the Bay for repairs and sismic upgrading to the GGBridge. Starting today giant barge pumps will pump the water out to the ocean until next Saturday. A new tube for Bart extension will be installed at the same time. Water will be pumped back on Saturday April 3rd.'
the 'emptying' of the bay?' I cannot imagine this... what does this look like? can any san francisco swimmers enlighten us? ...seems a fantastic event - the emptying of the bay I mean... any bay swim is exceptional too!

April Fools joke of course.
If you've seen the Bay you'd know. Even the tides haven't ever been able to empty it.
On top of that their Golden Gate swim in mid-October if I recall correctly
