March 17th, 2011: Rein participated in his first School Swim Carnival

Swim Carnivals are a big thing at the schools here in Australia. They go for a half or full day and compete in various races. The year 2's and 3's (Rein is in year 3) participated in less official, fun races with flutter boards and boogie boards. Rein, with all his hours spent riding waves at the beach, left his group behind in the boogie board race. He had a great time and I had fun watching and cheering him and his classmates on.
