So we took our annual group photograph — more than one, in fact, and not just group shots. At 1.9°C, the water was perfect for winter swimmers. The photographs in the album below are by Vojtěch Vajda. Thank you for them.
On Wednesday 10 January, it finally happened: a run of freezing days brought ice to the river. The whole entry pool and the entrance to the main Ostravice channel had frozen over. First we had to break the ice; only then could we enjoy a proper wallow in the icy water. We photographed and filmed everything, because you never know when it might be your last chance :-) The water was a lovely 0.0°C.
