Great Views around Manly

Anna, Greg, B and me at Manly 16 Foot Club

Anna and Greg live about a mile uphill from the beaches around Manly.  Anna swims daily and usually walks to the beach.  We drove the other day to the further beach and she insisted the water was warm - brrrrr!  it was cccold, but I swam laps with her anyways.  Then yesterday she came home from one swim and suggested we go to Fairlight beach, the short walk and so I agreed.  She forgot to mention it was downhill to get there and UPHILL to get back... phew...

Anna swims while I take photos....I finally got in but it was cold!

Sunday we went for a drive around and had lunch at Greg's boat club.  It was a gorgeous day and a terrific lunch.  I had the fish platter with fish, calamari, shrimp and oysters - B had a burger...
