Socially isolated in Newtown creek.

What a simply gorgeous day.

How did you manage to pay?

Looks fab. Almost deserted. Are you on a buoy or anchored?

Anchored. I’ve never picked up a buoy here.

The boat has been round but didn’t come to us.

As we are outside in a breeze there would have been no risk to handing him money and I’d have been happy to do so.

Saw 3 seals out on the paddleboard. Just perfect.

How did they all get on to the paddleboard? I mean, seals aren't that small. Or was it an extra large paddleboard? Asking for a friend.

Same Wednesday, no charge. Busy for a week day.

We were anchored outside, just stunning!

Does it matter? but the board was well sealed.

It is hard to imagine a better way that anyone could have a better day while isolating from those around them, good luck to you ??????

thanks for all the seal jokes- I left that one wide open......

Did you know that seals are related to dogs and it’s said that if they see a dog swimming they drag it to the bottom and kill it?

WelI took my friends 7 year old out on the paddleboard yesterday to see the seals.
(Girl on paddleboard, me on paddleboard, seal not on paddleboard!!)
When she saw the first one up close she said “he looks like a dog” even though he was sunbathing and we could see his whole body not just his head.

Sorry if that was boring but I thought it was interesting!!

Just wait until you meet some dolphins on a paddle board - might be fun

I've also been told never to leave our dog (6kg griffon/canis cross, loves the water and swimming) in the sea if there are seals around
What I don't know is if they drag them down in order to kill them or in order to play with them which eventually drowns them...

Yes would be amazing.
The seals are just curious. They stare like as if to say “why don’t you just swim like everyone else”.
I imagine dolphins might engage more actively!

You could write to him and he might write you a song.
