I know the picture is a little hard to read, but let me explain. Over the weekend we bought a pass to the amusement park, Walibi, and the attached indoor water park, Aqualibi. They are located near our town about 10 minutes in the opposite direction of Brussels. (For all of my Indiana friends, we are the same distance from Brussels as you are from Indianapolis. The girls go to school in Brussels and the drive from Overijse, our town, is the same as you would have if you drove to Perry High School. Walibi and Aqualibi are as close to us as the city of Franklin is to you. I hope that makes it easier to understand our location!) Now, about that picture. As you enter the water park, there is a sign. Maria took a picture of it because we just couldn't believe what it said. Stated very clearly, it says you cannot wear swimming trunks if you are a man. You must, for hygienic reasons, wear a Speedo. We giggled a little and continued on to the communal changing area. There in front of our eyes were men of every shape and size in Speedos. No kidding. We laughed so hard because Bob was at work. We knew he would be so excited to hear that he will have to wear a Speedo if he wants to go swimming with the girls at the water park!
Funny! The bathing suit issue has been the biggest joke in our family. The little boys look so cute, but the men.....uggghhhh. We live 3 minutes from Walibi and even have a family pass for the year.
ReplyDeleteIs this the same place where you took pictures to show us all the speedos?
ReplyDeleteThat sign is hilarious. I like the one that also mentions no cats, dogs, rabbits, or swim trunks.
kelshel - We must get together for coffee, maybe when you are getting around a little better.
ReplyDeleteBrenda - No, this is a different park. The one in the pictures is down the street from out house and they do not have the swimsuit rule. Although I do think they prohibit rabbits, cats and dogs.
Ron and Kara - Thanks for the great pictures via email of the American flag Speedos. Bob has so many choices of cute designs. I wonder if the manufacturer will ship to Belgium? :)
