Karlsruhe has been experiencing some high temperatures this week; so Maya had the opportunity to experience the cooling sensations of Karlsruhe’s fächer bad ( www.faecherbad.de ). I was particularly looking forward to this becasue we take baths here and she is yet to show any excitement, no splashing of water, no strampling of feet or even a smile. She just looks around the tub with wide eyes and a sort of ‘just don’t let go of me ‘ look on her face.
testing the baby pool
Needless to say, Maya’s first swimming experience was a success, first we got into the baby pool which is only about 10 inches deep and all nice and warm, then after a while, we went into the section where the big kids swam and she paddled away like a little power boat. With a big smile on her face and the occassional curious look towards the water slide where the older kids played, Maya proved that she wasn’t born a pisces for nothing.
in with the big kids
Based on this fun experience, I have decided to enroll us in a baby swimming class but first mama needs to get herself a new swimsuit because her cup runneth over in this old one. We also hung out a bit at the park behind the pool area where Maya got some cuddling time with her Oma.
