  We generalize the classical work of de Bruijn, Knuth and Rice (giving the
asymptotics of the average height of Dyck paths of length $n$) to the case of
$p$--watermelons with a wall (i.e., to a certain family of $p$ nonintersecting
Dyck paths; simple Dyck paths being the special case $p=1$.) We work out this
asymptotics for the case $p=2$ only, since the computations involved are
already quite complicated (but might be of some interest in their own right).
