Playground

We found another new playground, and this one has been quite a hit. The play structures they have here...even I think they're cool. Look at this crazy space-age climber thing. While many of the devices are really fun, this one is just three poles to climb up. Annika is like a monkey on it and zips up and down with no effort; Seanna fought her way up it after MANY tries and was incredibly proud. Daddy made it up once but that was enough.

At the top it has this a green button that goes "ding!" when you whack it. But you have to get to the top to hear it.







And check out THIS crazy alien ship! It's like a pyramid made of ropes strung really tight so you can stand on them and climb through them. We have one like this nearer our house, too, but it's not as big and with no slide.








Here we see your garden-variety sea of blue padded mountains to run up and down with a mini trampoline in the middle. Unreal. This place is SO much fun...and we're only showing a tiny bit of it. Not including the soccer court, mini soccer court, mini climbers, endless spinny things to make you throw up that ice cream you had before you came, ping-pong tables (sorry, tisch-tennis)...awesome.





This is what it looks like on a Sunday afternoon. It's like the beach--everyone has their shoes off (to play in the sand, of course--none of that mulch stuff here), picnics, newspapers, kids EVERYwhere. Make a day of it!
