Swim the Door in PREHISTORY (as in, swims before 2005)

As difficult as it is to believe, there was a time when “Swim The Door” was not a fixed annual event! Before the big group swims (and that Bollywood film featuring The Door), many friends couldn’t resist the warm tropical waters that must have existed then (as there are not many wet suits visible in these photos).
