365/115

Got up at 5:30 am to prepare breakfast and to pack the bags for the swimming competitions of my sons. They had different competitions in different towns.
I cared for my younger son. Backstroke, breaststroke, freestyle and relay swimming were his challenges. Despite of his rhinitis/cold it turned out good for him. He´s got one silber medal, one bronze medal and a challenge cup for the runner-up slot in the relay.

My picture of today shows him by backstroke in the relay. Backstroke is his preferred stroke.

As a little reward he may choosed a cute toy. It was this little green one what he want. It is flabby and very elastical. It´s good for nothing, but funny.

Back home again we went in town, for a big portion of ice-cream for him and a cafe lattè for me. We enjoyed the wonderful sunny weather with about 24°C degrees in a sidewalk cafe. Before that, we had made super cute spring pictures (of him) in a big public park.

Late afternoon we picked my elder son up, after his competition. His strokes were freestyle,backstroke, breaststroke and a medley (thanks to Sara for your help). He reached the third place in breaststroke and improved all his times in the other strokes.

Hope, you all had a wonderful Saturday!
CU tomorrow

That is so wonderful! I've always admired people who can do the backstroke let alone compete and win races doing it!! Tell both of your sons I send my congratulations for a job well done!

Please do explain what that toy is, however......

That's the kind of toy one could fiddle with for ages without ever knowing why!

Auch wieder ein klasse Foto ... ich liebe das, wenn die Wassertropfen so spritzen!
