Finally, the weather has let up and J and I got in our first swim this month - yay!, pause to hear clapping and cheering!!!
It was very cold but we managed to swim across the bay at Hataitai Beach and back again. We were in such a triumphant mood as we got out. We now have two more swims to do at the beach before the end of the month. It's going to be tight, what with the terrible weather we're having.
Here's a pic of low-tide Hataitai Beach.
J is determined to go tomorrow to the mid-winter swim at Breaker Bay at 3 pm (Saturday23nd June). The swim is on wet or fine. If the weather's truly bad though I may stay home which would give J the advantage. We're counting Breaker Bay (into our total of three) because the water there is colder than at Hataitai Beach. If we were swimming at say, Mission Bay in Auckland, that wouldn't be counted because the water is warmer up north. Goodness, we have so many 'rules'.!
pretty picture - it just seems to shimmer on screen like an opal - or dare I say it a paua shell :)
