NAKED AND FROST

June 21st was also the Winter Solstice.

It is therefore not very hot at this time in the southern hemisphere and the waters of the Derwent River in Hobart (capital of the island state of Tasmania) did not exceed 7 ° C (79 ° fahrenheit) that day.

Despite this weather, nude swimming enthusiasts have not missed the "Nude Solstice Swing" organized on the occasion of the Dark Mofo Festival of Music and Alternative Cultures.

They were 1537 this year to throw themselves dressed in everything and for all of a red bathing cap in the cold waters of the river.

The organizers, who provide the beach towels had this time anticipated the constant inflation of the inscriptions.

They were only 1000 last year (in 2017) to have presented themselves, at dusk, to launch into the water, a figure that had nevertheless far exceeded the forecasts of the organizers, who had run out of towels.

So your marks ...... !!!!
