Swimming again!

A lovely warm clear morning, Evan and I collected our delicious bread from reception and we put a bottle of water in the freezer to freeze (very French style!) to help keep the fridge cold. 

 Kids played around the site for the morning.


 I took them swimming in the afternoon; We figured out that reception would give us wristbands meaning we didn’t have to pay at the municipal pool which was great!  The pool was an old 1970s pool but was in good condition, took me a while to work out the system of getting a cage, putting shoes in, going through changing room, handing in cage and getting a wristband before finally reaching the pool!! There are 2 pools; 1 is deep with 3 diving boards and 1 is up to 1m30 with a slide so perfect for us.  The lifeguard is dead strict about boys wearing trunks and no eating or drinking by the pool.  The water was really warm and kids loved it, bought ice lollies on way back; the Wall’s kid’s range all seem to be safe for Rennie.

Kids and Chris had a cricket tournament when we got back!  Great fun, they're really good! Chris is particularly impressed with Evan's leg-spin apparently.
