Swimming in Uppsala

I have probably referenced swimming a few times on this blog, or if I've spoken about my experience. Swimming is one of my favorite hobbies and definitely my favorite fitness activity, so I'm really happy I get to continue with it in Uppsala. I swim at a pool called Actic, which also has a gym. I only bought the pool membership because it's quite pricey.

The pool is absolutely gorgeous, and has a hot tub, sauna, and steam room. There are three lanes for swimming, and the middle one is for "fast swimmers," but really it's just for those that are swimming a stroke other than modified breaststroke. I usually get the lane to myself, and every time I breath doing freestyle, I get a beautiful view of the cathedral.




I haven't brought my camera of phone into the pool, as I feel that might be a bit invasive, so I found a picture on google images. There's also a picture of the pool in the winter, but there's no snow here yet.
