Great dry blog, Simon!
Drinks’ Baby-sitting services every morning at 7.00! Great idea… Julia B, you can swim every morning now – just leave the kids with Drinks or his filler-in leader of the Drinks Express!

Haha funny blog Simon (but what about the swim?!!) I saw a beautiful giant cuttlefish on the way back and there was nobody around to show! He was pretending to be a numbfish when I first saw him and then he changed in to all sorts of weird shapes and textures. The sky was gobsmackingly amazing on the way back. Wow, wow, wow…I love this swim! I could post some photos on the Flickr link but nobody seems to be looking at them 🙁

Nice biggish waves coming in – was a bit scared !

I swam through a massively thick school of yellow tail that were gobbling up the sea lice (aka jellyfish bits). Go yellow tail!!

Did anybody pick up a pink B&B silicon cap and blue clear goggles this morning. I left them on the table closest to the Lifeguard store room – they had some blue tack bits on top. Hope somebody found them and will return.
