Another round on the run, I enjoyed the contest because I need a place to keep my photos, LOL. Thanks for
for hosting the contest!!
Dear Phonographers!
Last Tuesday, January 14th, 2025. I skipped my Tuesday swimming with the healthiness swimming group at a private swimming pool where I'm a regular member, and went swimming with my hubby instead. I've been longing to try to swim at the famous swimming pool in Pamulang, Kolam Tasa. I often pass the place when I had my morning walk with hubby. He told me that he'd been there many times in the past to train children to swim. Oh, I'm also his trainee now. So, Why not?. My swimming group refused to swim there because it's a semi public swimming pool which mean it's not for woman only.
The parking lot is at the right side of this compound. A cafe and garden with several big trees, a perfect place to spend with friends and family, or even you can throw a party there too. They offer the package for that occasion.
My hubby was a bit impatience that day, because I took too much time exploring around, LOL. But, what can he do about it? His wife is an explorer. I try to snap some picture here and there before I run to him to the register desk to get the entry ticket to swim.
Because, once I turn my head to the left and I saw this!!
Here come the pool for adults😍 hey, hello pools.. I'm a newcomer here, please let me have fun, okay?
Hubby was changing into his swim suit and I just need to undress my outfit. Already wear my black-blue swimsuit. I need to put on the earplugs, minus goggles and get the nose clip also my orange fin, put my phone in the anti-water plastic cover (I dunno what you call it in English, too lazy to check on google). I'm here to swim anyway. Hubby was calling me to jump in, he's already in the middle depth of the pool. I didn't care to do warm up, I jump in and kicking the water with my back on the surface to reach for him. Hehehe, my favorite's swimming style. Let the sun burns my face!
Wait, I like the palm trees, and I imagined how nice if we can swim at night here. But, the place is close at 6 PM. Well, maybe a private party one day.
Hubby was challenging me to show him my progress on swimming. That was our third times swim together. I learned to swim 3 months ago under his supervision and direction. Several short laps of freestyle, dog paddling and breaststroke, he let me go to get a rest. Hehehe... Photo time!!
I think it's cool! so I asked him to take my photo instead of doing selfie. But,
I did another several laps of back floating, diving and freestyle until I feel discomfort in my stomach. We decided to get out and had our lunch before we went home. I swam with empty stomach, no warming up and no wonder if I feel that way.
One more snap before we left. I suggested to have our lunch at the Garden Cafe, and there we go. Tbh, I need few more photos for my collection😅 while waiting for the food we ordered, I roaming around the garden.
Chicken Noodles, plain tea are enough to fill in my empty stomach. We sat under the tamarind tree and enjoy the atmosphere. Kids with their caretakers were having lunch at the swing under Rambutan and Sapodilla Plum trees, a cat napping on the wood table, we finished our lunch and left through the entry gate. I'll be back!!
With a thought that I probably too tired to do the cooking for my father-in-law, Hubby was offering me to buy ready-to-eat dishes for lunch and dinner. I agreed and we stop by the Yellow Chicken Curry seller. I don't have to say anything, because they already know what's the favorite amount and type we ordered.
All pictures were taken with Poco X3 GT, using photo and portrait, HDR auto, flash auto. I didn't do editing because the camera already done its job nicely.
I transferred the photos from phone to my laptop to make it easier for me to choose the related photos for the post. English is my third language, I don't use google translate or Chatgpt (I don't even know what is that🫣) and I always proud with My broken English style,
