75 Bold & Beautiful swimmers saw Dolphins today, did you? I’m sure they will be here again tomorrow, so get down to Manly at 7am!
The ocean wasnt sure this morning, generally flat but with a few sneaky waves in between
Some were ready for an arctic expedition!
Me and Snorkles were simply keeping our heads warm
Rainer’s Rebels were ready at 6.59am as usual
Sunrise right on time
Some people are a little camera shy
Jenny was a little over excited to see me! Bella was at just the normal level of excitement to see me
Sneaky wave catches a few off guard
I like these waves as they dont smash you, rather lift you up!
Anna & Lori show us perfect synchronised swimming form on the way to Shelly
Lori not so perfect form in front of the camera! 😛 (Still gorgeous though girls)
Those waves are nice to catch on the way back in to Manly
As always, I took time out for a quick selfie!

Great news that the dolphins are around!
Marije, are you swimming in your ugg boots these days? I notice they’re even blog-tarting down the ramp:-)
Look f/w to catching up with you all soon:-))

Thank you Snorks. Yes for the doubters, is it just a coincidence that every time the dolphins rock up, I have just been in the water calling them? I think not!!
Those episodes of studying flipper did not go to waste!!
A few interesting facts came out of our conversation:
They asked if I could say thank you to the pink cappers with their swim style is great to laugh at but I think that was a sly jibe at myself,
They said thank you to Robby for brightening their day, I think they were referring to skin colour though Robby brightening the depths in the morning.
They said thank you to the Cuttle fish for taking the blog photo heat away from them and thank you to Lesley for cleaning up after them.
Back to you Jane

I saw the dolphins at Curly on Friday so I think they are hanging around if it was the same pod.
They were at Curly for hours so I don’t think they are in a hurry.
