Park Life

We've always like to bring the kids to parks or "places with grass" for outings. Allan is in charge of finding parks around our area and he always manages to find great places. The last two days, we managed to visit two different places and get to have some quality family time with fresh air.

The first park overlooks the famous Lion Park Mountain. When we went there yesterday late afternoon, minutes later, there were lots of policemen and ambulances parked outside the park. We suspect someone might have gotten injured while hiking at Lion Park Mountain. Hope nothing too bad happened up there.

Today, we visited another park. This park is really huge and I think we might visit again for picnic someday. Scarlett wasn't in the mood to run about with her brother. She saved her day by bringing her own ear phones and I lent her my mobile phone to listen to some Taylor Swift. I joined her shortly and sat on the grass, listened to music and enjoy the greenery and air while the boys picked up twigs.

Chester saw this group of people playing with giant bubbles and decided to gate crash their bubble party. It was really funny to watch and I hope the girls don't mind him joining them, chasing after the bubbles and bursting them.

Sometimes I don't get how my son is wired. He seem to be so uncomfortable with strangers but today is definitely not the day. I guess it's because of the space and also if you have something that interest him enough, he lets his guard down. He constantly ran to the crowd with bubbles and hang out with the kids as if they were his best friends. It was hilarious for me to watch.

Allan and I have no doubt he will enjoy the Monday forest playgroup. He seems so comfortable with space and nature.

Fingers crossed.
