Jan
and I often complain that the swimming pool is more trouble than it is worth,
especially when we have to clear out the sand from a rainfall, or the pine
needles after a heavy wind.
But it is all worth it during those hot summer months
And
particularly when the grand children are here
They
were here for three weeks this year
The
first week was very hot, and they spent a lot of time in the pool
The
next week the temperature dropped 10c, and the water in the pool was less inviting
The final week it rose again to a comfortable 32c, and a pleasant 29c in
the pool
For
Stuart (aged 10) and Georgia (aged 7 during this visit) the swimming pool has long
been the highlight of their visit to nanny and granddad
It is all new to Chloe (aged 2) and she was not sure whether she really
liked it or not
But this holiday seems to have convinced her that she really does
It’s
nice to think that when they are fully grown they will have such pleasant
memories of visiting Jan and I here in sunny Spain.
