A perfect day

Yesterday (25-Apr-2009) we ( Shiv,Bibha,sucheta and I) had been to Keski-Espoo (Espoo sports hall). The sports hall has a training swimming pool, therapy swimming pool, sauna, steam bath, Whirlpool bath,gym and a kids pool.
Though we don't know how to swim, we had a great time. Sucheta learned floating, whereas I barely managed to float.I tried freestyle swimming and some other variations.

After the swim, we went to the the jacuzzi and the therapy pool.This was my first time in a jacuzzi and it felt very nice. Also, the therapy pool was really wonderful. It reminds you of the kerala therapy pools that you often see on TV.The water temperature in the therapy pool is around 30-33 °C. It is a great way of relaxing after a swim.

I did not try the sauna and steam bath (since it required that you be naked before entering the suana/steam bath) as I am not comfortable doing it.
After spending around 3 hours at the sports hall, we were pretty exhausted. Sucheta and Bibha went home. Shiv and I went to saravana's home. We had pav-bhji and egg-bhurji for lunch at saravana's home.
After the lunch, we watched the movie "13B". The movies was a pretty good watch. The movie keeps you engaged til the end. After the movie, we left for our homes....So the pefect day came to an end...all of us exhaused, having a great sleep..
