Thoughts beyond my life & my travel - Bel

I rushed back to parents' home one day and walked fast across the concourse of Central Station from one side to another. Something caught my attention. Two buggies were parked on the side with a mother squatting on the floor. It's not a very common scene especially for a western mother in this awkward position. When I passed by the buggies, I had a peek and realized that the mommy was breastfeeding her son alone with the buggies parked like the shields. The Central Station is almost the biggest in Hong Kong with thousands of people passing by every minute. I pondered if I were a mother, would I do that? I saw mothers breastfeeding in the bench in the hospital I work but we don't have a busy patient flow. To me, breastfeeding is not something you will do it in public but I know mothers will do anything when their babies ask for it. Maybe the train station should consider to have a breastfeeding / babycare corner for those mothers.

I hope I'm back to the swim routine again as it's a workout for your whole body. I used to know how to swim freestyle, then learnt the breast stroke by myself. Only till today I realised that I didn't quite know how to do freestyle. It's alternate breathing instead of breathing from one side. I'm still not quite sure whether I will do it the "right" way but I will definitely watch how many swimmers actually do so the next time.
