RIO<br/><br/><strong>"Rugby? As in that English game where everyone ends up caked in mud and with broken noses? Shoot! You don't look like a rugby player to me. And swimming eh? I swim too, in the lake. Its a bit cold in spring but by this time of year it's super-warm. The water's lovely and clean too and of course out here you don't need to worry about boring stuff like bathing costumes,"</strong>I finished with a wink,<strong>"Place is great for getting an all-over tan."</strong><br/><br/>I had wiped down the kitchenette counter and the dining table then went to clean out toilet and bath, talking to Lita with a raised voice through the doorway. I was very happy to have her help with the beds and such but I couldn't ask her to clean the bathrooms, so I was prepared to shoo her offer away and got on with it myself.<br/><br/>As I worked I began to get a bit warmer, my shaggy mop of hair hanging down in my eyes. I got an elastic band from a box on the side and put it up in a quick pony tail. It was nice to get cool air on the back of my neck.
