67 Bold & Beautiful swimmers.
3 guys; Gaetan, James and Miles enjoyed an early lap to Freshie and back and were accompanied for part way by Claire.
Check out the beautiful colours in Gaetan’s photos taken en-route this morning. I think that’s the bommie you can see starting to work in the second one.
5 swimmers; Anne, Jenny K, Ian, Izzy and Lee also jumped in early for an early bonus lap into Shelly and back.
We were also joined by a couple of the Terrigal Tremblers for the 7am swim this morning too; Adam’s father, Ray Moore and Roslyn Eathrowl.
As you can see from today’s photos the water is beautiful. It looks like it’s going to keep getting better too, ready for a Christmas holiday full of great swimming 🙂
Tim’s fact of the day: “The Pacific Ocean is so big it could fit all of the Earth’s continents.”
There are still some B&B calendars available. So if you’d like one please see me after a swim or order online here. If you would like one but can’t make it to swimming we can post it to you.

“Catching up with the Boderdashians”, isn’t that a show on the E! Network? I of course don’t watch it, my tastes are much more highbrow.
Unfortunately silly season will prevent me from joining you tomorrow, but I’m keen to go early on both Saturday and Sunday.

Bolderdash is looking good tomorrow.
Offshore sea temperature is 20c. The swell will have dropped from 2.9 to 1.8m and the wind will be south south east at half the rate of today [11kph].
As well as all this it is predicted to be SUNNY!
Sounds like a good one not to be missed.

why not, potentially the last opportunity to swim on the Ocean side before easterlies kick in for a few days apparently.

It was nice this morning but quite big at Freshie, waves were breaking right at the pool. Bolderdash should be great tomorrow!!!
