LOL, not an Aussie, but always wanted to go there. :) My little inside joke: The "swimmer" in the picture is Olympian, NCAA champ and US 100 yd butterfly record-holder, Kelsi Worrell, who is training with the University of Louisville team at my pool this week. She had a collision in the warm-down pool at the short-course worlds with an Aussie swimmer who was circle swimming clockwise while Kelsi was going counter-clockwise. That's how she got the stitches over her right eye. . things rotate opposite direction below the tropic of Capricorn, even whirlpools

Some swimmer came up to me at practice this morning and asked for some advice on her butterfly. Told her not to share warm-down lanes with Australians. 10876 Are you an Aussie, Mark? :) I've spent a lot of time down under and have a soft spot in my heart for that part of the world. :agree:
