Got there, had a look around, chickened out, and went to hide it the other end of the swimming pool. Put on my tail as fast as possible and flopped in!
I did swim by three kids who practicing leaping into the lane, they stared open mouthed.
My question is, how do you deal with the staring? I don't know if I can get used to that.
