A great turn out at the Surf Club today with swimmers from all around the globe together in harmony! Conditions were great, water 22.6 and bluebottles had gone!
Our amazing welcoming committee for today, Henrietta, Sally, Amanda and Deb! The ocean has calmed down in the last few days, the sea lice weren’t so bad and the swimmers were back to swim across Cabbage Tree Bay!
Kiwi and Pommy swimmers
Our very own Grace Kelly originally from South Africa adding sophistication and class to our swim but a bit camera shy!

I think the above are all Aussies

Colin and Karen. Karen is hosting her first Storyroom of the year on Feb 1st at Bucketys Brewery, Brookvale. There’s a great line up of speakers including environmentalist and anti-fracker Bruce Robertson and other inspirational people. Go to Humanitix Storyroom Brookvale to book before it sells out!

Not sure where these guys are from except for true blue Aussie Bruce Baird of course. He kindly gave ‘Homeless Steve’ a pair of his favourite jeans the other day when Steve was down to his last pair. Gary Brits alo stepped in with a bag of clothes. Thank you
Always lovely to bump in to Sarah and Kate in the water. They pointed out the tropical fish below.
We’d even got fish who’d travelled far to swim with us. This Moon Wrasse and friend had come down from Queensland on the Eastern current!
Our residents are still here, Gropers, Stingarees, Silver Sweep and Gropers. Viz is clearing…
Beautiful sights at the harbour the last week.
Well we’re off to the Blue Mountains for the night! See you on Thursday!
