Splash and Cool off

        In houses without air conditioners, it's really hot especially during summer times. Because of the humidity, we tend to become lazy to move and would rather choose to sleep. This kind of schedule is clearly unproductive. Get rid of this boring lifestyle by cooling off outdoors through swimming in the beach, pools, natural rivers, lakes and waterfalls. Go out, splash, swim and enjoy this kind of recreational activity.

      Don't forget to apply sunblock cream and lotion for ultra violet protection before going out and exposing youself under the heat of the sun in order to avoid sunburn. As always, it's more fun when you're with peers or family. It is a must to bring meals, snacks and drink when going to beaches, pools etc. because in the middle of your swimming enjoyment, you'll always feel hungry. Of course, don't forget to wear proper swimming attire.

      You can choose wherever beach, pool, falls, or springs you want to go. If you prefer to go to a beach, choose the safest and most organized one and to have security, you better go to high quality beach resorts. Choose a cottage or rest house that you are comfortable of and never leave your things unattended. What's good about beaches is that the water is natural and continuously flowing plus you can enjoy making sand castles and catching suitable-for-aquarium kinds fishes.    

    Have fun splashing through the natural waves but be careful with sea urchins and sharp rocks. You can also bring surfing boards and try riding banana boats or jet-skis. Find luxury in sun bathing and  burying yourself in the sand. Enjoy swimming and floating in salt water and feel the fresh sea breeze. You may play with your friends some games like beach volleyball, ball catching, catching game and other more pastimes you wish to frolic.

     If you like to go pools, choose those who have life guards and proper water maintenance because in some swimming pools, they are not changing the water regularly that makes all the dirt/bacteria concentrated on the water which can cause skin disease on the other swimmers. Be always considerate of the prices of the cottages and the entrance fees because some may be more expensive but are with lesser quality. Swim and enjoy with your companions but always remember to set limits in terms of the depth of the pool where you'll be swimming in.  You can use floaters and romp with friends. 

     If you don't like spending much, then go to open seas and natural flowing waterways. Most provinces have clean rivers and springs. You can go their if you have relatives or friends living nearby. Don't ever try to immediately dive in unknown water bodies for it may cause you accident and worst, drowning. Have an expert guide you especially when you swim in waterfalls because you might be going out of your boundaries and be carried away by the rushing water current. 

     Forget all stressors and appreciate how nature makes you feel comfortable. Splash, swim, relax and cool off until you feel that satisfaction you've been craving for. Life is never dull as long as you know how to go against boredom. Let nature help you make your life colorful.
