More schoolwork for Judy today! She eventually gets to the point where she can go to Dragonfly Spa and unwind with a “Top & Toe” (foot & head/shoulder massage). She hasn’t figured out yet how to tell the masseuse “not so hard”. She’s going to have bruises on her neck and shoulder again. Back at home later, she’s moaning and groaning, but finally puts a finish to the schoolwork.

This is how the motorbikes/scooters knock off the wind. The “skirt” and handles are heavily insulated.

I get in another swim session. It’s getting easier, so it’s time to lengthen my distance and maybe speed up a little. As I walked in, the clerk tried to tell me something about the showers and no hot water, but I could shower at home, so I went in anyway. After the swim, the showers were working. I chalked it up to my lack of language.

Back home, later in the afternoon, we realized we didn’t have any hot water. Whoops! I start worrying that I hadn’t paid up our “hot water” account. It’s been a long time since I paid anything on the account. I try reading the meters, but I’ve never really figured this out. There is a meter in each bathroom. I’m pretty sure they’re for hot water. There’s a utility closet in the outside hallway with plumbing for every apartment. Two of the meters are marked for 2503, our apartment. Lilly and I decided a while back that one was for cold water, and the other for “flush” water. Guess I’ll go to the UHN management office tomorrow and get paid up.

I rode to the park for more kite flying. It was even more crowded today than yesterday. I went to a different section of the park, looking for some open space. As I was searching, I found the “kite park regulars”. These guys are serious. They’ve got really fancy reels, and bags, and bring their own stools. They come prepared.

This guy has a serious kite flying rig. His kite was barely in view, it was so high.
