Family Swim at Commonwealth Rec Centre

This morning we went for a family swim at Commonwealth Rec Centre.  I had taken the kids there before but this was the first time all five of us went.  As always, it was pretty great, it is never crowded, and everything is very new, clean, and well designed.  Cost for a family is $24.50, a little cheaper than Terwillegar and I think pretty good value.  The pool itself is pretty awesome, and admission includes use of the field house and the gymnasium, as long as it is open time (seems to be a majority of the time).

The pool features include:

• large kids pool with lots of fountains and sprayers
• one great water slide
• an aquatic climbing wall
• large hot tub
• swimming lap lanes (3 or 4?)

The kids loved the water slide, I think they went on it ten times or so, and luckily there was no line so they were able to spend all their time sliding and none of their time waiting.  Our youngest loved floating around the kids pool in one of the baby boats and spent some time on the little blue toddler slide.
