Parc du jour

After a weekend of sights, I've had the urge to keep the kids all to myself while we start the week and Scott heads back to work. And I'm delighted to report that we've had a couple of glorious, sunny, warm days yesterday and today. And that means during the week Colby, Maia and I head out to some local and not so local playgrounds. I'd thought I'd give you a taste of what that means.....

Yesterday we went to the abbey. Log rolls down the hill were on the menu. Just need to make sure dog poop is not in your path on your way down. (I'm tellin' ya, the Belgians have no sense of cleaning up after their dogs!)

















Dog poop averted.










And today we visited two of our favorites. There's the 'big playground' that's got all sorts of structures and kids and campers and really loud people, so we feel especially welcome.













































And then after lunch we hit the playground that's in the park at the end of our street, Jardin du Roi. This playground was coined "Little Mike" by the kids. Not sure why. They just call it Little Mike. And Little Mike happens to have the dreamiest sand.



















and then I wanted the camera back. and then home.

Oh man,I dunno. I'll have to think up some clever segue. As long as it's interesting or funny. or both.
