New Park - November 6,2009

We didn't do much this weekend. But we did find a new park that looks like it will be a fun one to go to for a bike ride. This one was huge and had lots of wide paved paths, leading from one garden to the next. There were also play areas for the kids, a small aquarium, a museum (closed at the moment for maintence) and a train. We went in the afternoon and there was hardly anyone there. As we were leaving at around 4:30ish, everyone was arriving with their picnic baskets and blankets. Looks like we will need to go back for a supper picnic!

One of the off shoot gardens that we did explore and play around in was the fountain one. The entrance had this huge golden ball where the fountain came out of and there were several ways into and out of the garden. Within the garden there were several smaller pools with fountains in them.
Once finished there we headed out to try and find the aquarium. We found a dow boat that the kids clamered on, and the aquarium. It was a pretty neat one to see. Not as big as the Dubai one but big enough for the kids to wander around and see the fish. The train wasn't running yet because we were too early. So we will just have to go back with a picnic.












Here is our little model or is she the next class clown?
