Visiting Aunt Heidi! Hot Springs! Day 2

On the second day, Olivia, Heidi, and I went to Hot Springs! It was super cool to feel the 140 degree water directly from the ground. There are fountains of it all over town, and you can fill up water jugs with it, which we saw people doing.





We went into and toured one of the old bath houses.



This is a "steam cabinet" in the ladies "bath."



This is the kind of shower I want!



This is the grand men's bath. What? The women's bath was crap in comparison!



Although it has been dry in Arkansas, the leaves were turning and were beautiful!



We walked down the magnolia-lined streets:



At the end of the walk was a hot waterfall! The pool edge was really warm to the touch!



This was the hotel my Grandma Mae and Grandpa Bill stayed at when they went to Hot Springs. Grandma said it used to be "it."



And back at home, Heidi taught Olivia how to walk...well, not really, but I was surprised that Olivia liked walking on Heidi's feet. I didn't know my little baby was ready for that!





And Alex made us delicious and beautiful jambalaya for dinner! Mmmmmm!



Heidi was a hit with Olivia:
