Swimming and other water sports

I used to swim quite a bit, although I don't swim as much anymore. Still, I'm generally more comfortable in the water than on land- I'm a "water person", which explains my sometimes obsessive(...hmm, fine. Not OBSESSIVE) affinity toward beaches and rivers and ponds and the such.

I do like water balloon fights, and the like. They are fun.

Do they have swimming pools in Germany?

I love being in the water! (Notice I didn't say swimming - I'm not that good.) I also like to canoe and kayak. Fishing is all right, but I've only caught one in my life, and it was pretty small.

Two weeks ago was my first time in the water. Since then, I have learned how to swim just a little bit. I love it so far, but I will be happy when I can do more than just doggy paddle!

Ditto.....swimming, boating, fishing, water fights, etc......if it has me near water, I'm very happy. When I was younger, I use to get my chores done as soon as I could (during summer) that way I could go swimming.........and I would manage to stay in that river or lake (wherever me and my friends ended up going) until just about supper time......no wonder I don't remember CA being this hot.....I was still a kid last time I lived here, and it was a rare occasion that I had to be out in the heat, typically I was in a nice cold swimming spot.

Peace Out
