Maxim in the water

Maxim in the water

Thanks to his grandmother, Maxim was going to the beach every single day during the last two weeks. Today I went together with them to see how the whole thing is happening. The idea was to inherit the experience, so that I could do this with Maxim on my own.

If I knew how cold the water is, I’d be against these sea bathing from the very beginning, but I seem to have missed the best time and now the kid has pretty much got used to it. I went into the water and it felt like a slow execution. I don’t know how come that this water measures +26 degrees because it’s freezing. And I was not alone who thought this way as only a selected few people from a rather crowded beach felt like sweeming.

First swim in the sea

While I was sleeping, preparing for the trip to Nicosia, my mother took Maxim for his first swim in the sea. She said that he looked confused at first by all this water as he didn’t know what it was, why was it there, and what he could do with it. But when he realized that he could splash it all he want, he got OK and did only that – splashed all the water he could.

Yet another mileston in his development.
