During our free getaway at Plantation Bay Resort and Spa, my son overcame his fear of water. I have always encouraged him, almost to the point of forcing, to learn how to swim. I would teach him how to paddle, do some bubbles, and hold his breath underwater but when I would tell him to try paddling with a floater, he would always say no. He wants me around always.
But this past week, my brave son overcame this. And I remember that I was around the same age when I first explored swimming on my own. I was so glad to see him do the same. We were at the Kilimanjaro Freshwater swimming pool which seems to be equipped with ecomatic salt cell and after a few minutes of lessons, which he also refused, I just let him be. I allowed him to do what he wanted in the pool on his own, just with his goggles.
