Another day with more fun in store for the children and me both. Beginning the day with a stroll (and the kids loading up the Kinderwagon), we ventured to a nearby city playground. I really got to know how walkable Ettlingen and most of Germany is. Everything is foot, bike, and Kinderwagon friendly! However, I am used to the pedestrian right of way but Germany yields to bikes, thus I ended up having three close calls just today where I stopped mere inches away from a certain disastrous collision. Luckily, no collisions occurred but I did have to deal with some upset children when I told them they were not allowed to touch the electric fence. We all were happy to see the horses and livestock out and about during our walk, but even happier to settle down for a midday nap, where I again accompanied the kids, exhausted from my near bicycle mishaps. Overall, today showed me how the kindergarten takes advantage of the accessibility of the neighborhood and the emphasis on car-alternative travel for the environment!
