The other day at Mimi's pre-school, the people from kinderswimmer came to give a talk to the students about water safety. So therefore at papa's suggestion, mama signed Mimi up for swimming lessons starting this coming Monday at Kinderswimmer. This evening mama and Mimi went to check it out. For some reason mama was thinking that it would be at a public pool like the ones she is used to going to back in California but in our case it is at someone's home or what appears to be someone's home at one time or another. It is an indoor pool that feels like a sauna when you go in. The temperature of the pool is always 92 degrees especially in this cold and unpredictable weather. The weatherman says that we should expect a little spring snow come this weekend.
Mimi will be taking swimming lessons twice a week. So now our social calendar is really full. Come this Monday she will have her first swimming lesson (1/2 hr) at 10:00, home for lunch, school at 1:00 p.m. then at 4:00 p.m. gymnastic class (make-up session). Tuesday is her regular gymnastic school. Wednesday will be swimming lesson in the morning, then pre-school. Thursday is gymnastic school. Friday is pre-school. Saturday morning is Chinese class then in the afternoon is another gymnastic class (make-up session). Phew!! I'm pooped already.
Hopefully by the summer she will already know how to swim especially when we take the kids down to the lake as all the families do up here in the northwest.
The picture in this blog was taken at the pool site. As you can see, the Cherry Blossom trees everywhere up here in the northwest are in full bloom and they are absolutely gorgeous to see all along our highways.
