Pool Doctor

As summer beings to show its face, our pool has sprung a leak. So, enter the Pool Doctor. Tau has been working hard to plug the leak and eventually had to get his wet suit on and dive in.



Pool Doctors are a common feature in NZ, but as I'm sure you can imagine it been a complete novelty for us.



'Watch out for the eel!'



Tau has inspired the kids with a desire to dive. However, they don't seem to share that passion early on Saturday mornings when they have their swimming lessons. They have to learn all the strokes including the butterfly and it's not going down well.



Having found the leak at the bottom of the deep end, the next job is to empty the pool and seal the hole.



With the pool empty, the kids are able to venture into the deep end without fear of drowning.
