Due to many things, finally we went to swim tonight. This is our first time to swim in this summer. It is still so hot here. But somewhat we felt a little bit cold when we swam in the pool tonight. At least we didn't have to suffer the suntan. We had a great time, especially our big guy

I have not gone swimming in a long time.
Even when the pool near to my home is opened.
I guess it is high time I make the effort to go take a look at the new pool.
I wonder how many laps I can cover now. It is really long ago that I last went swimming.

Hi youless, there are two places where we usually go for swimming during dry and sunny season. Other than visiting the swimming pool of a club, my friends and I like go swimming in group to a big natural pool beside a water fall in the wood, which is not far away from our place.
We bring along with us some foods and beverage and it is some sort like picnic We enjoy eating and chatting while come up from the pool. The water there is crystal clear and cool It’s really wonderful and cool to have fun swimming and playing in the water under the shade. Anyway we hope the shade of the trees would shield our skin from getting suntan.
posting and have a nice day.

Hi youless, thanks for giving me the best response
Nowadays we couldn’t go for swimming anymore as it is still rainy season here. It would be a high risk to swim under the rain especially with thunder and lightning.
Enjoy more summer night swim so as to keep you and your loved ones much healthier and fit as well
posting and have a nice day.

As far as i am concerned,i will choose to have a swim early in the morning maybe 7:00.Now more and more people prefer to have a swim in the summer.The weather is really hoter and hoter.It is cool to in the pool.but in the afternoon,there are so many people.I have have the room to stand in the pool,can't swim.If i swim,i will bump other person.One time,when i swim,then i feel one person's leg kick my stomach.It is really hurt me.For another thing,when i get out of the pool,it is easier to be black under the sunshine.Evening is also a good idea.Sometimes i go to pool at night.but people is also many.so i choose to have a fun in the pool,don't swim.

That's quite expensive. There is a gymnasium nearby my home and it has four swimming pools from children's swimming pool until standard swimming pools. It costs me 15 yuan at night and it's already higher than in day time. So 30 yuan for swimming is pretty expensive.

I don't usually go swimming, I will go for a dip in the ocean when I go to my retreat in August but sadly this year the weather was so bad I didn't get to the Beach once. In my leisure centre we have a swimming pool but I much prefer to be in the gym, I may go for a swim when the children go back to school as it's full of kids splashing. But I find swimming boring on my own, just going up and down, up and down. We don't have many outdoor pools because we just don't have the weather sadly.

My friends ask me to go out swimming with them so many times. I refused however.
I became so lazy that I didn't want to swim this summer.
Maybe, it will be on my list next year

During the summer,I always choose my swimming time in the early morning or evening as I don't like the hot sun in the daytime.Another reason is there're crowd of people in the swimming pools near my home in the daytime.HOHO~~Keep lotting~`
