I also took a photo of TOM from Swansea in Wales who swam today and another newbie from Spain but cannot seem to download those photos. They will have to swim again. Welcome to all the newbies

Thank you for your fantastic, consistent always inclusive blogs Elizabeth. Yes it’s a Port Jackson shark egg casing. There have been a few washed up on shore lately with the sea weed. Great photo of the Marinans!
