"Each summer we go to bathe in the swimming pool with mum. Sometimes we also go to the lake but I prefer the pool because there are no swans. The water is cold to begin with but once you are in it, it’s OK. When I go into the big pool, I take my "fish feet" (flippers) with me. Mum says I can start swimming lessons next year. That’s cool, as I won’t need my water wings any more."
