Brother Jimmy invited more than a dozen WuGu residents to join the sports event. We enjoyed the jacuzzi and swimming pool till 11:30. There are two swimming pools at the sports center. The standard 50 by 25 meters pool is restricted for qualified swimmers only. The qualification is non-stop swimming for 200 meters. I'm thinking about taking a qualification test in the future.
The jacuzzi at XinChuang has a splendid view over a big floor to ceiling window. It felt great looking at the green trees against the blue sky outside while laying on the jacuzzi bed. It is like having a luxurious vacation at a five star hotel on a tropical island.
At 12 noon, we took the bus back to WuGu. While Brother Jimmy rode the indoor bicycle, I joined the online Zumba and Taichi classes for 30 minutes. It was raining when I got off Bus 918 at CiJi Hospital. I rode my bicycle home and laid flat on my bed till 4:30.
This morning, I took the opportunity to make acquaintance with a few residents. I listened to their stories, happy and sad. An expert swimmer resident told me he used to be a team member of XinChuang Swimming Squad. After a head injury due to the traffic accident, he stayed at WuGu. I also taught two residents how to hold their breath while immersing their heads in the swimmingpool.
I told the Director of WuGu that I could accompany Brother Jimmy and residents to XinChuang Sports Center every Friday. It fun to make friends with people around Brother Jimmy. There is no time like the present. I plan to use both the fitness center and the swimming pool for two hours. As I know where XinChuang Sports Center is now, and I shall get off the bus at Material Testing Center station. It takes less than less than 5 minutes to walk to the center.
