When I read the title of this thread I thought it must be a joke. Ice swimming in Lesotho? Lesotho is a country that's entirely surrounded by South Africa, right? So I looked it up and learned an interesting fact: Lesotho is the world's highest country by minimum elevation. The entire country is above 1,000 meters elevation, the lowest point being 1,400 m (4,593 ft) above sea level.
