So a few weeks ago, Daryle and the kids and I stopped here at Toast for breakfast, it was a wonderful little discovery of a new place to eat, and our meal was fabulous. When we got ready to leave the restaurant and come home, I had said that I wanted to take the kids' pictures in front of the cool fountain just outside the door. Well, when we got out there, we saw to our horror (after hearing our children screaming, "OOOooohhh that's so gross!") that there were two children playing and splashing in the very public fountain absolutely stark NAKED. One was a little toddler, but one was school-aged!! Not one stitch of clothing on. Daryle just shook his head and kept walking and mumbled something about only in California, but I was just gap-jawed! The parents seemed to be enjoying all the negative attention, but the people who were eating at the outdoor tables a few feet away weren't all too happy. I wanted to hang around and watch for the inevitable to happen, you know, that thing that always happens when naked babies are in water.... But we went on our merry way. That was an interesting conversation in the car on the way home! "No, you may NOT play naked in water fountains."
So this time we were able to take some lovely fully-clothed pictures of the kids playing by the water fountain.
