finally in the water / punta del este

One of the major things lacking in our lives over the three years we were in Southern Chile was a lack of swim time for our kids. Even at the indoor swimming pools we went to, the water temperature was just too low for my little ones to stay long in the water. Warm water was pretty critical for us to make any major progress.

Living on a boat and around the water, it is a huge priority for our kids to have the ability to swim. Swimming is a lifetime sport, and the sooner they start, the stronger they will be. 

We were super psyched when we arrived in Punta del Este to be able to enter the water for more than the 5 minute dips we made in the Beagle Channel at the peak of the summer season.
