water park
Mar. 29th, 2008 05:45 pmWe got together with some friends today and took the kids to Atlantis, the local Familienwassererlebnispark (doncha just love German?) That would be the family water amusement park, ie, indoor pools, waterslides, wave machines, etc. Very cool, I don't know why we didn't know about it before. The kids have been a couple times (with their friends/dad) but I've never been. There was even a part with heated water that was outside, so the surface steamed in the upper-40s/low-50s air. We all thought of
sarah_create and her daily--in summer, even!--swimming experiences in frozen Iceland. (That was my daughter's favorite one, actually--maybe she should move to Iceland someday. But maybe when she's grown up. It sounds too dark for me!)
The thing about water parks is this: all this sound bouncing around, but echoey far-away-like. That way water activities have of distorting time. That nice warm bathtub feeling that makes you want to bring your waterproof pen along, because suddenly you are getting all these ideas... It would be an awesome place to write, if you weren't watching Small People to make sure they didn't drown. Still. It was pretty fun. Spouse and I are not water people per se, but everyone had a nice time.
