WHO TAUGHT YOU TO SWIM?
I never learned to swim because of a water phobia that I don't even remember. But I was told that I almost drowned in the Suez Canal. The ships would dock around there and we had to use small boats to get on board. I was about four, and my mother handed me over to the sailor, he thought that my mother was still holding me and my mother thought that he was, plop I went, they were both wrong. Ever since then I have a water phobia. I can't have it anywhere near my nose. Therefore, I never learned to swim. I can dog paddle a bit, but that is in very shallow water. Many people have tried to teach me, but like with ice-skating, no one ever succeeded. Did you learn on your own, or did someone teach you.
