Water play
Here are some pics of the kids playing with water. You’ll see more pics of Tristan because Celestine is a bit scared of water-rushing, noisy fountains.

Our outing at the swimming pool allowed us to confirm that humans INSTINCTIVELY hold their breath under water, they don’t have to learn it. We discovered this when both Tristan and Celestine lost their balance in the pool and went under water entirely. They did not panic, they did not gulp water, they did not cough, and they did not cry. Mostly they were surprised.
That being said, they were unable to stand up again by themselves while under water, so they still HAD to be rescued. Luckily for them, Yvonne and I were paying attention while sipping our cocktails…
Interesting uh? Next scientific experiment: “Do babies react well to electric shocks?”
