Swimming at the Gunpo Welfare Center

I woke up this morning, cleaned the apartment, and wondered what I should do with the rest of my day.  I then remembered that I wanted to check out the swimming pool at the Gunpo Welfare Center. About a month a go, Ras and I were on a walk and noticed a very new building [...]
