New Swim Classes

Well, tonight was the first night of swim classes at a different location than previously.

Isabel couldn't wait to get into the water. She kept trying to leap out of my arms into the water. She was so excited to be swimming again.

So, here are my thoughts of pros & cons of the old location and new location:

New Location (AmericInn)
Pros:
* Easier registration process
* I like that we sing songs that you can incorporate swimming into
* Professional appearance to swim instructor
Cons:
* Higher class #
* Very poor accomodations for changing
Middle of the Road:
* Cost
* Water Temperature (so far it was ok, a little chilly, but not too bad)
* Time of class
* Location of facilities

Old Location (Holiday Inn)
Pros:
* Can use the waterpark before or after class
* Small class size
* Snacks/beverages available for purchase (if desired)
* 2 miles from our house
* Likes the use of water toys to encourage swimming
Cons:
* Less than ideal accomodations for changing, but better than new location
* Noisy & can be crowded from other kids using waterpark
* Hard to get a hold of the manager to register
* Swim instructors that had hickeys all over them
* Inconsistent water temperature, sometimes was chilly
Middle of the Road:
* Cost
* Time of Class
