Nicholas reading to Christopher

Nicholas drives a go cart

On vacation we decided to go to a "play center" which is mainly intended for indoor playing when the weather is bad. It was hot and humid outside which translated to worse inside the play center. Anyways, there was a go cart track for small kids, so we let Nicholas go. The other kids standing around seemed astounded that the "little guy" was allowed to drive, and that he was as good as they were.

Nicholas in the Park

Here is Nicholas standing on the sledding hill at the local park.

Summer Fest at Nicholas' new Kindergarden

They invited us even though he doesn't start until September

Beach - North Sea style

Here we are in our tradional beach hut. The weather is humid and in
the high 80's (no wind).

A Carousel Ride

Herre are the boys riding the carousel at the "French friendship
festival" in Pullach (right out front of Nicholas' preschool).

Electric Boats at Lake Starnberg

Christopher did not want to sit still, so he was a handful trying to
keep him from the edge (why didn't they give us life vests? probably
didn't have any). Nicholas got to steer the boat for awhile, and we
enjoyed the view of the alps, and the sunny weather.
