Mika's notebook entry: May 29, 2011 I feel refreshed today since I swam for an hour for the first time in the last 7 days. I also went to the swimming pool 2 days ago too, but I coundn't swim. The swimming pool closes at 8:00 pm and the ticket office is open to 7:00pm. I reached there at 7:03 and a staff said no. After I left there , I called 117 (time signal) It said " it is 7:01 :20. It means that when I was in front of the ticket office , it should have been 7:00 just or even earlier.

Mika's notebook entry: May 29, 2011

I feel refreshed today since I swam for an hour for the first time in the last 7 days.

I also went to the swimming pool 2 days ago too (not wrong, but redundant), but I coundn't swim.
The swimming pool closes at 8:00 pm and the ticket office is open to until/till 7:00pm.
I reached there at 7:03 and a staff member said no.

After I left there , I called 117 (time signal)
It said " it is 7:01 :20.
It means that when I was in front of the ticket office , it should have been 7:00 just or even earlier. It would sound more natural to write this as something like "So, if I had just gotten to (arrived at) the front of the ticket office a minute earlier, it would still have been open."


Nice entry. Sorry about your ticket! :(
