We have a pool at our house and I am looking at it now as I type. It is not very appealing at the moment because although it is a nice sunny day here, it is way too cold to go swimming because it’s winter time in Australia. Our pool is not heated and although it does get quite hot in summer here I prefer to sit inside with the air conditioner on than jump in a freezing pool!

I don't think our pool was ever that warm in feeling. But the temp in our car was 105 the other week. I don't go swimming much cause I don't have a suit and I hate for the chlorine to wreck my clothes. And to top things off the skeeters are so bad who'd want to go outside anyways?

Hi, jahernandezrivas. Isn't it something that a person is unable to enjoy a fun activity that was meant for the hot weather??? I don't like swimming when it is very hot either. I can't enjoy myself, like I would really want to.
