Did you ever wonder why a nation of less than 30 million people can produce such good swimmers? The answer is beaches of course but also public swimming pools. Even in small towns you will find olympic size swimming pools. Brisbane has nineteen of them and they are life savers on hot sweltering days. Once when passing through Goondiwindi (pronounced Gun-da-windy) we bathed in the artesian-fed public swimming pool for hours to escape the heat which was a balmy 122F (50 celsius). Most of them has a open-air change rooms, a restaurant and even grassy areas for a picnic.
