Well here we are January 1st 2008 the beginning of a new year and my 2nd Polar Bear swim. Yup I did once again. This time I was able to talk youngest son into going with me....eldest boy came down with the flu last evening and hence was in no condition to take a dip in the ocean. He was the photographer and hubby was the videographer. So I hope you enjoy the photos and the little video he put together for me so I could post it on my blog....thanks honey!!! Happy New Years to you all!
Here I am waving to all my blogging friends....this year there were far more spectators than swimmers.....
Ok, I got my sandals now get me out of here.......
Here's youngest son.....not to sure if he really wants to be doing this....
Here's warming ourselves by the fire......
Youngest, still trying to get warm by the fire....like the hat....he got that for Christmas....it just says Canadian eh?
Here I am waving to all my blogging friends....this year there were far more spectators than swimmers..... There I am running into the water, hands up ...hoping that the waves won't get me.....
I'm just behind the woman in the blue suit and about to get hit by that wave.....Here's warming ourselves by the fire......
