Picture Perfect Friday: Hobby

Hobby?  I have few hobbies:  Beach, Travel, Reading and Swimming.  But I decided to pick out one of them:  Swimming.  I chose it cuz I love going to swimming very much when the weather turns warm and prefect.  I swim with my white bubble while I was growing up.  Bubble is a floater that keeps me out of drowning if u can't swim normally as being a disabled woman.  I started going to swim as I was little girl when I received my first white bubble.  I always brings a same bubble to the swimming pool since then.  Now my bubble worn out.  I need to get a new one by order.  Swimming is good for ur exericse.  I feel my legs improving.  I enjoyed swimming myself.  My father keeps an eye on me when he's there for me.  See a picture of me below:



This picture was taken at Ivanhoe Hotel in Ormond Beach, Florida during Summer 1992.  I have been going there since I moved to Florida with my family as 16 yrs old girl until I stopped it in about the year 2001 when my walking ability changes due to gain weight.  About Ivanhoe Hotel, the name of that hotel have been changed to current Best Western few years ago.  No more "Ivanhoe".  I felt sad when I saw the sign on the beachfront as one of my parents driving pass by.  That hotel looks different little bit now.  It added up a new ramp for disabled guests before "Ivanhoe" changed to a new name.

Otherwise, I have been still going to swimming pool at YMCA for few years.  I did not go there last summer cuz I was trapped staying home by too many trips to the bathroom in my apt, u know what I mean.  I felt bad at that time.  Hopefully, I will go back there next month or June seriously but first, I have to buy a new bathing suit.
