Open Fire House




It was open house at the Munich fire department today. Boy heaven! We put on Karl's fire truck Tee and red shoes and off we went. They had all the engines and ladders out, the ambulances and the nifty Beamers of the commanders. There were balloons, coloring books, sausages and sodas. You could shoot at some painted bears with a real hose. Best of all - unlimited, unsupervised crawling, climbing, pushing of buttons and pulling of levers.



Karl has new heroes now. Next year he'll also get one of those kiddie helmets. When he tried one on the firefighter lady said he looks like a freshly hatched chick, so we settled for the T-shirt that says "This ain't no job for whimps".
