Sea Rescue

Dream #1: Sea Rescue

Dream: I see (as if I were watching a movie) a young woman alone rowing in a small boat at night on a dark and stormy sea. She has a red umbrella to try to protect herself from the rain. I also remember a green color around her. Otherwise, everything else is black. In the distance, she is rowing, rowing.

In the distance, she sees a sailboat (from the old days), white as a ghost. She tries to go towards it, but can't because of the current and the waves. But a larger, phosphorescent inflatable lifeboat has been dropped on her. She heads towards it, but cannot reach it even with her best efforts.

The current takes her away. And there is another one behind her. She managed to get into it and put her things in it safely. She goes back and forth between her boat and the larger lifeboat, transferring all her belongings to it. Then she folds her boat (which is now like a small inflatable plastic boat with water in it) around her waist.

There is a gigantic waterfall soon towards which the lifeboat is heading. There is a man on the lifeboat, and he has a reassuring voice (that of the character of Mendoza in the "Mysterious Cities of Gold" cartoon of the 80s). I wonder how after all these years the actor who doubles the voices of cartoon characters is still alive. It's a bit like watching a series.

Back on the mainland. There are 2 carts with a tarpaulin on top, filled with people in white judo or karate kimonos; this kimono is the mark of people affected by quarantine. I know these covered carts, because Bastien, my husband, had already been in them; it is for the plague.
