The Campbell River swimming pool is right near the skating rink. The pool has a gigantic tube water slide that twists right outside! You end up in a green tub with water foaming all around you.

Sometimes, if you are in the right place, jets of water will rocket themselves over you and land in the pool with a splash on the other side. Of course, you are not always lucky enough to catch a glimpse of this.

Almost better than that is when you can relax and swim in the warm, shimmering water.

In the shallow area of the pool spurts of water shoot up and for a moment,they almost spiral. After that beautiful moment is over, they gently fall into the pool, leaving only the faintest ripple.

Or you could skim the water like a torpedo after you have launched yourself off the wall of the pool with speed.
