[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is everyone else really going to the pool every weekend in the summer? The public pools in DC don't even open until 10am and by the time we get there, get dressed, and get in it is basically time to come home anyway. I can't imagine forcing that outing every weekend, we only do it as like a "special event" because we have to rearrange so much of our day.[/quote]

Yes, but ours is walking distance and we are trying to get our kids over the hump to learn to swim.  We do our clothing changes at home.  But one reason we do this is that it accomplishes kid and adult exercise, learning something, and an enjoyable family outing, all in about 2.5 hours.[/quote]

Yep, same. Plus socializing. It's not a forced outing--the whole family enjoys it! We are at the pool at least 5 times a week in the summer.

It takes us maybe 10-15 minutes to get ready to go and less than 5 to get there.

We eat lunch or dinner or a snack while we're there, depending upon time. We shower when we get home and then the whole family is clean. [/quote]

NP.  We go to the pool every weekend in the summer -- we all love it![/quote]
