A map of the coast of Western Australia showing the area around Perth and across to Rottnest Island. The area between the mainland and the island is obscured by many multi-coloured dots, which are tracking the swimmers in the annual Rottnest Channel Swim.

On this day of the year, more than any other, I reflect on how my partner and I have different ideas of fun. He is swimming to an island. I am not.
