8. Doing something so exciting it makes you feel 5 years old again.

This weekend I went on a hen weekend for my Practically Sister's sister to Centerparks. One of the wonderful things about Centerparks is the swimming pool which is where we spent a majority of the day yesterday (when this should have been written but wasn't due to lack of internet access). My Practically Sister's sister is somewhere in her mid 20's and apart from me and my Practically Sister's so was everyone else there. Now you would think in terms of maturity this would make us young immature and niave, this however was not the case they were just as excited about the rapids, the grand cascade and put just as much effort into waiting for the waves (we left in the end before they started as we were cold and had to be back, but we did catch them today and boy did we have a blast) as we did.
Normally I am not to keen on the prospect of swimming, as I once said to a Friend of mine 'Swimming is just a dissapointing bath', this however does not apply to the centerparks pool as there is so much to do you are not just wallowing in the lukewarm water.
Anyway our day at the pool was brilliant as I love feeling like a child again, and knowing that the amount of joy simple things like that bring does not change when you 'grow up', is a wonderful thought.
