Moonlit Swim

Housed in a magnificent stone and glass building, the night's swimming pool is a unique haven. It's known internationally for its restorative atmosphere. And although it's somewhat exclusive, we're lucky enough to enjoy unlimited access tonight and all nights. It's perfect for night swimmers and star gazers and anyone looking for somewhere truly dreamy to drift off and float away. Before we begin to enjoy this unique location, it's nice to start with a wind down exercise. For tonight's wind down, you're going to use your imagination.

And now just gently bringing the attention back to the body. Two women emerge from the changing area wearing such bright swimwear, your eye can't help but be captured by the colors. One is wearing a lime green bathing cap and a fluorescent pink suit, while the other has on a pink cap and a lime green swimsuit. As they stroll towards the pool, their arms and legs swing back and forth in unison. They stop right at the edge of the pool about a foot apart and adopt identical stances. Well, what do you know? Their toe nails have been painted to match their swimming caps. The next moment, they're bending their knees and flinging their arms up into a point, diving with beautiful synchrony into the aquamarine water.
