In August, I’ll be plunging into cold water for the almost 1 in 2 Australians who will be diagnosed with cancer by the age of 85.
Please donate to my challenge!
The funds I raise from my Daffodil Day Dip challenge will help power world-class cancer research to save lives.
Your support means so much to me. Please help create a cancer free future by donating to my fundraiser now! 💛

Dip 23/31 - Edwards Beach.
17C - warmer than last week but not as warm as Manly yesterday at a whopping 17.8! No wonder we stayed in long enough to see a green moray eel swimming across the sand before slipping in a crack in the rocks. Have to agree with John’s description of the conditions!

Dip 19/31 - Edwards Beach
I am not sure if John’s comment on the conditions ‘brutal on top’ refers to the water temperature (14C on the surface) or the bluebottles that have blown in with the tide!
