Caroussel

We had a strange morning at the playground. I think it was national "Communication as Understood by Nerdy Teutons" day. Some of those baby mamas sure gotta work on their social skills. So we took to the Englische Garten in the afternoon where they have the great Caroussel at the Chinese Tower beer-garden. It was built in 1912 and has been kept pretty much the same. There's photos of 3 year old me riding the white horse just behind Karl. Here on his first ride Karl wasn't quite so sure, if he likes the whole merry-go-rounding that much. He warmed up to it though and we had to go again twice. We also bought a balloon. I got him a great one in the shape of a blue helicopter, but he was so steadfastly set on the huge pink Bugs Bunny, that I had to go and ask for an exchange. Oh baby tastes. Always a mystery. It sure made people smile though, having that two feeter bunny float over little Mr. blue-eyes. Probably because the Englische Garten is adjacent to the old hippie neighborhood of Schwabing and it reminded them of some really nice acid they once dropped.
