Olympic-size swimming pool

We keep our love in a photograph. The thing I love about photographs is that they capture a still moment and it stays like that for the rest of your life, even if the person in that picture doesn't. They always told me that a picture is worth a thousand words, I didn't believe them until you were actually gone. Pictures are like memories that you can show to people. Some pictures though, you keep hidden. Those pictures are the ones that you keep in the bottom of your drawer under your clothes,…

They even say that after purchasing the pump and oars, they still feel that they found a good deal on an inflatable boat of this size. AIRHEAD AHIBF-06 Angler Bay Inflatable Boat Cons The soft bottom of this boat does not allow for people onboard to move around freely. It is hard to stand up on air, even when fully inflated so that it is kind of firm. This could be a drawback…

exercise that will still make you sweat! You may think that swimming in a pool is all it takes for water aerobics. But this is not true!

San Antonio Escapade By Kirstine Arcayan This summer I went to a percentage of places and did a bunch of things. I will tell you what I have done this amazing summer in San Antonio, Texas. Moreover, I visited San Antonio with my family and some of my friends. One of the things we did there is we went to the Riverwalk. We went there when it was dark, so the lights looked very bright and sparkly. We saw all of the colorful and bright lights under the starry night sky. At the Riverwalk there was…

It all started on a very hot day over the summer. Callie had been working at the pool as a lifeguard for five months now. Today her boss had told her that a couple new lifeguards would be joining them to begin the summer session. All of the current lifeguards were suddenly worried about the new guards coming in. They wondered if they would know what to do if something happened and if they would all get along. Even with their worries they still welcomed all of the new guards and were excited to…

the local stream or pond. Children spent warm summer days teaching themselves and each other to safely enjoy the water. Today's children spend little time exploring nature and few ever see a swimming hole, much less use one. Concerned parents seek classes that ease children into swimming. Warm water swimming pools make lessons comfrotable, but classes…

could hardly swim one lap at the time. Somehow in all of my dying fish-like swimming I had managed to hold first place all the way up until the last few yards where I choked on water and nearly drowned. The second buzzer signals the swimmers to mount the starting block. I climb the first rung. A thought of failure flashes in my mind, my gasping for breath during my 100-meter fly,…

Hi Journal, Since it is the summer time I am having a blast swimming in my pool, but with one exception I am swimming in my new mermaid tale. Today was my first day swimming in it because it took the past couple months to perfect. While I am swimming in it I hear this simple melody which is at odds with the strength I feel in my lower body. Whenever I swim I feel so powerful as if there are no limits to what I can do. When I was still recovering from my depression, art became a visual way for…

know that my childish desire would haunt me till the days of my adulthood. Foolish and naïve thinking patterns entered my mind: “How hard could it be to swim? I mean, I am taller than everyone else here. All I have to do is stand while in the 5 foot pool and the water would be at waist level”. These were the thoughts that constantly invaded my mind. The…

The diving suit never looks like a simple outfit ever. Each suit for diving is based on many accessories that help to stop the water to be entered into the body. It is different as compared to the swim suit. For swimming, you don’t need to wear heavy suit with loads of accessories. However, the sea divers need to wear lots of things over their body. The major things required to wear for diving are gloves, hoods, boots, dry suit and wetsuit. Some divers like to wear wetsuit while some want to…
