The baths

Last weekend, my parents took me to a place called Baden-Baden. I was pretty apprehensive about it because that translates into bath-bath. Fortunately they didn't force me to take any baths there. They went and spent several hours at a bath, while I stayed back at the hotel and made a few friends. I am a little worried about my parents...I mean, who would actually spend money to go and take a bath, and choose to spend 3 hours bathing! Plus, to tell you the truth, I personally don't think they looked or smelled much cleaner when they got back. Anyways, I got lots of walks around the town, which I must say was really pretty and fun. I even met a little kid at a restaurant who went and bought me some treats. On our way out of town, I decided to stop at a creek and try out the water and see what this "magical" mineral water was really like. It must do something, because as you can see in the pictures, this is the farthest I have ever intentionally gone in to the water, and it really wasn't all that bad.
