In order to work on different parts of my body, Kat, my massage princess in Kerang, suggested that I try flippers and a kick board. Steve and I decided that some good goggles would be helpful. The goggles were an excellent special online, so we bought a pair each. Rachel had a spare kickboard hanging in her garage; the flippers cost $6 at an Op Shop. I look quite a sight when I'm all kitted out ---- oh yes, quite a sight!
I am really enjoying the goggles --- underwater looks like magic. They don't exercise any part of me, though. If I use the flippers without the kickboard, my legs sink to the bottom. If I use both kickboard and flippers, I swim sideways. I start off pointing squarely up the pool and end up knocking into a side wall (or anyone in between.)
I think I would like a snorkel now.
