Glorious swimming conditions despite the chill 2


There were plenty of tiny fish in the shallows this morning that had the seagulls in a flap. I tried to photograph the fish but the contrasting colours of the sky and clouds made it difficult, if not impossible.

Chris, Judy, Dave U. and Dave were the only offshore idiots braving the conditions this morning. The Inshore Idiots were well represented with Linda, Rod, Gayle, Di, Janice, Judith and John, Robert, Bob, Mike, Malcolm & Chris, Catherine (almost indistinguishable when she is brandishing the shower cap), Ian, Vic & Rosey, and Bunny… taking the plunge.

The course for us was to head around a nicely appointed cruiser haling from the Gold Coast, on to a catamaran up from Tassie, and across to the post.

The water temp was a superb 19C but the wind blowing across the water was icy.

Off to the island next and quickly back to the steps to maintain some blood flow. A chilly exit from the water, dried and dressed in record time, then coffee beckoned.

 


About Dave

Dave has been an idiot for longer than he can remember. However, his Real Idiot status was confirmed about 20 years ago when Linda and Bevan coaxed him out to the post. Developer and administrator of this website as well as reporter, photographer, and chief spell-checker. Thankfully, other idiots contribute to the site to keep it interesting...
