Siyabona / G’day
Apologies for missing my last blog – I know what a void this must have been for some:). In fact I was asked today if I blogged haha – yes that impactful.
It was a dolphin filled day in Manly. We were entertained by a pod of dolphins for an hour or so swimming across from Queensie to the Point. See photos below of the masses gazing in delight.
Temperature was allegedly a nippy 15.8C, conditions sunny and clear. Water still as a lake. Simply stunning although the viz remains murky-ish in places.
Spotted today were some lovely PJ sharks, a turtle, so many dolphins and an octopus at the point and all Jon’s fishies.
Monkey business ?
The scene
Dolphins in the background I promise
Capless, his bike and a helluva story with Roger and I trying to keep straight faces – too early for some Dave 😳😵💫
This group are allegedly independents not belonging to a tribe except some ( Robbie -secret men’s business group , Jimmy- self confessed floater #tart, Greg – DX )
Along with Capless Dave, Sooz had some form today with a good story 😉 seen here with fellow WOWs Lisa, GG, Buddy dog and moi.
These two lovely Saffers, Vanessa and James -kind-eyes, sporting post swim joy.
