Over 62 Beautiful Bold swimmers!

Another horrible morning! 😉

 

We are fed up with the orange sun rises! And these massive waves with surfers all over them!

 

 

 

No not true – it’s perfect and we love it all!  Air temp was around 14 but felt colder! Leaving clothes removal till the last minute or a towel jackets! John K offering half way as another option, which some of us did but the rest went in from the beach.

If you time it just right entry via the beach is possible! Below the main group going in from the beach and the smaller group around at half way…

 

 

 

The water is still warm – 21 degrees! Fairly clear too….

 

 

 

We are all enjoying John K’s no messing about Let’s Go’s….

 

 

LOTS of underwater life to see – it’s another world down there…. I saw many sharks today zooming about! I think the last pic has a King Fish in it??… but there is definitely a shark there too!  You can’t see in this photo but they all ‘flew’ past me at great speed – including the shark – as if something was chasing them!! I downed camera and flew back to half way myself…. John K waiting for the last ones to get out at halfway to make sure we were all accounted for 😉

 

 

 

 

As always a really wonderful swim with lots of happy faces afterwards – the ice-berg frozen face smiles of winter still not here!

Below pic from the Argyle crew – From Stephen C – “packing like girls for 3 days of roughing it“.  But I was more impressed with the packing technique, I don’t think girls can pack like this! 😉

    Did you bring back any of the PINK diamonds?? They would go well with our caps.

    Sorry Sue no champagne diamonds….
    Potentially some Zebra rock however.
