Today, in New Zealand, it is Thursday 21 June, The Shortest Day.
The Young One, J, and I managed to rope in about ten other mad-cough-cough-I--mean-'brave' swimmers to accompany us on the shortest day winter swim. The air temperature was 8c when we got in the water.
It was cold, and the water was choppy. There was a magnificent rainbow over the beach, some sirens (celebrating our shortest day victory, naturally!), and as a fire engine driver passed the beach he gave us a couple of toots.
Below: a pic of some of the mid-winter swimmers entering the water at Hataitai Beach, Wellington, New Zealand, 21 June 2018.
