We celebrated with a snorkel at Manly's harbour side beach where there is a large netted swimming area. We had been told this was fabulous, not because you need the nets for safety, but because the bottom of the nets are filled with sea life and most particularly the Leafy Sea Dragon, a sea horse type creature without the twisty tail but with lovely dragon like lacy wings.
In th picture below you can just see Brendan's bottom on the surface as he ducks down for another look.
Well unfortunately no Sea Dragons but there were sea horses which we have never seen before and wonderful to see out of the aquariums. Also a cuttlefish snoozing on the sand, a pineapple fish and various other harbour residents. I am constantly amazed at the sea life in this very utilised and busy harbour! Well so many swims to look forward to in the future, so many islands and pools we can now explore as a family, how marvelous!
