Yesterday, the girls and I went to the local public pool. You are not allowed to take pictures, but the pool has lots to offer. The girls especially like the outdoor part:
Gestern war ich mit den Mädchen im Schwimmbad. Man darf nicht fotografieren, aber das Schwimmbad hat viel zu bieten. Die Mädchen mögen besonders die Angebote, die draußen sind:

The favorite thing here is a "current canal" that pulls you along.
Der Strömungskanal (Strudel) ist für sie der Höhepunkt.

Hello Eva, it's wonderful to see the Nordsee. I remember you making the trip in 2013. Do you go to Sahlenburg because it's where you went as a child? You must have been happy to be there again, though perhaps all of you missed Jonathan and Charlotte a little . . Such pretty photos and movies . . it seemed a bit windy! And the black headed gull is a handsome fellow :)
ReplyDeleteAlso, the public pool looks very nice!
I love going there! No, I never went there as a child because I grew up in the "Siegerland," which is not in the north. We moved to the north when I was 14. And we never went to Sahlenburg as a family. I discovered it on my own in 2013 (I was looking for a place at the coast that was in reach of train and bus). Yes, it would have been nicer with Jonathan and Charlotte. It was very windy and the wind hurt my ears. I wish I could have captured the "mournful" cries of the gull better, but the wind was too loud. He landed right in front of me and "mourned." The pools is wonderful! I had some of my P.E. classes there when I was in high school.
