Let me apology for replying that late.
And secondly let me express my appreciation that you took your time and left such a nice comment.
I have wrote so much positive about this place already, that I wouldn't want to repeat anymore :)
It is the best to come and see on your eyes...
And swimming in the lake is actually possible. Many people are swimming inside during summer time, especially from the northern part of Europe where they are usually used to lower temperatures. I don't know how is it with you, but you could try.
About the USA feast, who wouldn't like to have another opportunity for that, right?
Enjoy your week ahead...
