Thursday 24 August: 50th birthday and 500km

24/08/20177

This morning was just one of those special mornings.  I know we say it a lot but with calm, clear seas and a sunrise like this how can it not put you a good mood for the rest of the day.

The yogi’s getting their zen on.

Ted, Val and Nicky.

Jeff has just returned from holidays, he loved his time in the outback and on Great Keppel Island as he explained to Martin and Dorset.

The 6.30s head back in spectacular conditions.

Getting back from a 6.30 swim just enjoying the water and weather.

As this pair head out for a 7am swim.

Congrats to Kieren Callaghan who celebrated his 50th birthday today with a 6.30am swim of course, but also tipped over the 500km swum with Bold and Beautiful, a great achievement on both counts.


Alan and John.

Anne from the management team with Lyndall and Lips who just love a photobomb.

Sophie just finishing her 6.30am swim as we venture out.

Shelia and the boys – Ted, Patrick and Derek.

Those pesky A-teamers were proudly showing off their new caps this morning – demonstrated below by Sterling.   If you see these slight variations of our regular pink caps – be warned, keep clear, they are super competitive and have a tendency to swim over the top of people in their way, especially coming around the point.

Turbo has been spending too much time around Shaun, demonstrating his love of wearing clothing left behind, although I’m pretty sure Shaun prefers ladies swimmers!! 

Don’t forget the Solstice Swim is on this weekend for those who are a little adventurous.  The swim will leave from Shelly Beach at 6.20am.  For the uninitiated it involves getting your swimmers off!!!

Oh and nearly forgot to mention we had whales out on the horizon breaching and generally just having a whale of a time.

Have a great day, I know I will because it started with a swim with you crazy lot in this amazing slice of paradise.

    Gorgeous photos and lovely blog Dea. Turbo just loved wearing that bra this morning and it even showed off his cleavage. That bra actually came from hot Heather originally…

    Great to sea the A team supporting Sea Shepherd and using their logo. Excellent choice.
