Tremble, it's for a Good Cause! Polar Bear Plunge 2009

Hey, hey, I know of you there who remember the Polar Bear Plunge 2008 (cliquez!) , and I hope see immerse in ice water this year ... It not very nice! But I do not blame anyone, because I'm like: the show of daring or unconscious divers jumping into water at 2 degrees Celsius? -Dore-me at that! Here

the Polar Bear Plunge, New Season 2009, and it is ...

glossy ... More
... it was much colder this year: - 8 ° C with a feeling even lower thanks to a little very sharp cold wind!

Even more tasty ...
... the pool cut into the frozen lake was much longer, a few meters more endless immersion ice water!

Even more extravagant ...
... Special Prize for Best Costume!

More Hot ...
... lots of photos of divers in Speedo sexier than each other, but I keep them all for me!

divers are ready and the hot tub while steaming east too.

Like last year, stress is mounted at the clock when we saw a nice "-18 ° C thermometer. Like last year, it has only caused As we neared the lake. And like last year, any pressure fell when the divers found themselves scantily clad and voluntarily while pressed against each other in the queue ...

Prior to successfully sneak in the first place (but against the light unfortunately), I attended by far the inauguration of the Polar Bear Plunge by the Police of the City.

I cast a quick glance right and left. The candidates are looking to plunge; can not miss them!

Those are sighted?!

Mini shorts and Ugg, they live their dreams without having to be in Malibu!

After the Police, the Firemen are flowing with water.

In shorts and pink outfit, they still have so much class!

A second group of firefighters, very united in adversity, happy,

... and proud of their achievement. We are just as they do!

After Official Ball of the ice can begin ... enjoy!

A group of nurses

Sometimes the show is not where one expects the most ...

And now the Easter Bunny, "Easter Bunny"!

A mixture of genres ...

A Rockstar ...

Oh, a little Leprechaun! Remember to celebrate St. Patrick's March 17th.

The Gang of Super Heroes (they are clever: the cape and holding keep warm!).

Only Super Hero e s who can walk on ice in heels!

Barbie and Ken

Wacky sighted

Pirates

The Midwest Farmers

The Minnesotans (Private joke!)

The crew of Star Trek

See?

More Super Heroes!

The Blues Brothers

What mastery, bravo gentlemen!

I've shown you, but look closer. At the same time, imagine yourself in undress waiting your turn at the pool, with a temperature - 8 ° C, caressed by a breeze from the North even cooler ... then imagine yourself jumping into ice water and trying to reach "the solid ice" as soon as possible ...

Given the extreme conditions, there is a snag, you see that?

The smiles and triumphant attitude replaces the grimaces and the curled shape which I expected. Everyone is happy and smiling in the race. I find it extraordinary! BRAVO to all!

My favorite team warm in the hot tub frozen immediately after the jump. These are the same as last year Fous, only the color of the T-shirt has changed. They still managed to raise $ 5,000 for Special Olympics Association. Polar Bear plungers Well done!

Since my last post a month has elapsed. There was no as the Polar Bear Plunge, of course, many other events occurred and the idea that soon, perhaps I will leave the area, makes me not missing a beat! Here is a picture that illustrates very well my business right now, and not a suit diver frosted, but work clothes! To summarize, dressed in cook, "I'm having The Time of My Life" (I'm having!) ;-)

today to catch a little of my delay in publication, I will post more revenue at the same time. All images that follow are not all a link to the recipe, and do not necessarily have a date. But as much as I like to photograph what I'm cooking the tea, I wanted this time to show what usually stays in my files without being seen on the blog.
