Llandudno Boxing Day Dip 2012

After so enjoying the atmosphere at last years Boxing Day Dip in a fit of festive madness I decided to accompany my daughter into the freezing sea in Llandudno's North Bay. We were joined by my sister and her son who was visiting from France. As per usual everything was a bit last minute so between preparing the boxing day meal for 12 people and making the house ready I had to rush around trying to create a fancy dress costume suitable for the sea!
Here are a few photos from the day, enjoy, we did.

The ubiquitous Panto camel

Team Podiller!

Still looking happy.......

The first ones in.......they cheated and went in on the count of 2!!

The mad dash

.....and even the camel went in. RNLI on standby.

Looking remarkably alive after the Dip
