Thursday 27 June 2019: Back to beautiful sunrises and calm seas

It looks like the rain and waves are behind us now for a few weeks and its back to perfect sunrises and flat seas for our Bold and Beautiful morning swim.

The sunrises are creating some very picturesque shots as evidenced below with the 7amers coming back to shore.

This was a little earlier in the morning as the 7amers made their way into the water to the sun peaking through on the horizon.

Michelle and Martin are clocking up the swims for their winter badge.

As are these 6.30amers.

Heading out just before 7am were Fi, Kerry and the team.

One of the best parts of the morning is the pre-swim chat!!

Some of us do a little pre-swim exercise to warm up

What better way to celebrate buying a house than a morning swim in Cabbage Tree Bay.

Off we go at 7am.

Rainer says he hasn’t been in the blog for ages!! Here you go and you didn’t even have to photo bomb!

Have a great day everyone!
