Mon 17 March 2008 - The pool
Things to love about going to the pool
- Perfect cool-down on a hot day
- The kids have fun splashing around
- Inexpensive and close to home
- Secure belongings in a locker; don’t have to hide keys in shoes
- The cool wave pool… just like the beach, only cleaner (no jellyfish, for a start)
Things to hate about going to the pool
- Hot day = crowded
- Little kids splashing you accidentally
- Wrinkly skin and chlorine in your eyes
- Have to take the car to get there… no parks in the shade
- $3 for a lousy cup of chips… and I found I only had $2.80 in cash with me
