outings&#8211;always game for anything and good-spirited in all circumstances. \u00a0He really enjoyed all the interesting sights and sounds. \u00a0I was pleased and impressed with how kid-friendly the whole place was; I certainly don&#8217;t remember it being that way when I was 15! \u00a0(But then again, why would I have even noticed back then..?) \u00a0There were several good puppet shows we took in, and lots of live music to enjoy. \u00a0We danced in the drum tower and ate a variety of treats and even made a few friends. \u00a0Everyone seemed quite delighted with seeing little Josef wandering around, and I must have heard the joyful cry of &#8220;Naked Baby!&#8221; about 50 times.<\/p>\n<p>It was a perfect adventure in every way, and we are looking forward to next year, when I bet he will enjoy it even more.<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-1497 gallery-columns-4 gallery-size-thumbnail'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon
