Hi there
20 June
Today The Young One and I thought we would be the only ones swimming from Hataitai Beach mid-winter shortest day swim. The weather people had given us a storm warning. It rained, was cold, and windy.
But, surprise, there were about 20 of us hardy swimmers there. My friend, Jay (10 years winter swimming behind her) handed out congrats magnets to everyone that were swimming today. There was a polar bear picture on the magnet, plus the year and beach name. As we all arrived everyone was dressed in hoods and scarves and beanies and winter pants. I couldn't recognise anyone because they were so wrapped up.
What a success. The most people so far. Today the water temp was 12.3c; it's been colder this month, but the sea was rough.
