Oh Cabbage Tree Bay, sweet Cabbage Tree Bay,
You are the very best place to start a day,
Whether the weather is sunny or grey,
Your beautiful waters brighten my way.
Cabbage Tree Bay, divine Cabbage Tree Bay,
you are a slice of heaven I have to say,
In you I see sharks, fish and many a ray,
Keep up the good work, sweet Cabbage Tree Bay

Well it was a bit bumpy in the bay today,
Many chose to enter the water at half way,
Recent sightings of the grey nurse shark,
highlight the importance of our protected marine park.
Avid swimmer Fifi is fighting the cause,
to keep in place these protective laws
that protect the wildlife within our bay
So they live to see another day.

Have a wonderful weekend dear swimmers, Well done to Roz on her 500km today!
