"Meet the Parents" Moment
So, we were invited to an indoor water park not too far from here. We were very excited and quickly changed into our suits to get in the water. As Matt was getting into the pool the lifeguard blew his whistle at him. When he came over to talk with us, he explained that Matt's board shorts were apparently too modest for the French pool. So, Matt was not allowed to get in until he changed into something more suitable--which of course we didn't have. LUCKILY they had a vending machine full of all sorts of chic swim suits to choose from. After a LONG time waiting for Matt, he finally made his entrance to the pool, looking a bit like this...
While very normal here in Europe, his new suit had about 1/4 of the material he's used to with his California bathing suit. I really thought he looked great! But he just wasn't used to it...YET. :)
Afterward, we walked around the small village and got distracted by the leaves on the ground...
