Any of you like swimming?

Here's my definition of perfect swimming evening:

First you warm up in ~100C/215F sauna for about five minutes. (not long enough to start real sweating)
Then you'll keep on swimming in 20C/68F lake for fair half hour with air being little above 10C/50F so that vapour in exhalation starts to condense. (you don't want to get out of water because it's much warmer in there)
And after that you'll go to cooling ~90C/195F (no one wasn't keeping it warm) sauna.

That way you don't get cold or hot at any time.

    Actually, I hate swimming. Especially in the sea or a swimming hall.

    Not unless I have to. You don't want to know what's in the water.

    Around here? In the sludge that passes for rivers, lakes and oceans? Are you crazy?

    I absolutely love swimming and being in the water. Unfortunately my skin gets dried out severely by even having a shower, so while swimming is fun, the day or so afterwards isn't very nice :(
