Mid-winter swim, Hataitai Beach, 23 June 2024, 2pm

 Hi there



Bottom photo:  It was drizzling a couple of minutes before the swimmers entered the water but the rain stopped as we stepped into the sea.  The water was as flat as a mill pond.

 Top photo: taken just after the swim.  A sunbeam pierced through the dark clouds to illuminate  an over-the-water shed at the end of the bay. Note the shed's reflection in the water.

 Probably about 40 people attended....

Shortest Day Swim

Hi there

Yesterday, it was The Shortest Day in The Southern Hemisphere.  So, mid-winter swim at Hataitai Beach -




Light drizzle.  Air temperature, at the time, was 10c. Getting in, was half the fun.  Or not.
