Swimming In Tokyo-30 September 2011

Yesterday, I went for a swimming at Tokyo Metropolitan swimming pool for the first time. Need to pay JY 600 per entry, but not an issue, as I think the facility is worth is, clean and Olympic size pool. As it was on Saturday, and another pool was closed, the remaining one pool they have is very crowded. But what makes it interesting was that, even it was crowded, in the two lanes allocated, there was a proper q, and everyone was in the line to swim, in a very organised and proper order, in one direction, and making a U turn, and then into another lane, on the opposite direction. I feel very odd and the same time, good, that I am part of this "organised and disciplined swimming, in a Japanese swimming Pool.
