Stanley Park Once More





























Friday started out with another trip to the gym, what a treat. After about half an hour, Rico brought the kids down, while he worked out, Josh and I swam in the pool while Katie sat in her chair and watched, it worked out pretty good, we both got a bit of a work out that way.


After breakfast we decided to go back to Stanley Park and see a different section. It was a bright, warmish, sunny day, and it was just gorgeous, and many of the spring flowers are blooming. We found a section of the park, a lot like our Griffith Park, that had a choo choo train ride, a small petting zoo, a park, a lake, and also an aquarium, all sorts of things to do. The aquarium was too big and too busy, so we didn't do that, but we did lots of the fun little things. Josh loved the choo choo, and the swings, and throwing rocks into the lake. There were Easter characters out and about, an Easter bunny and chick, they had big colorful balls that they were playing with all the kids with, Josh had lots of fun doing that. We ate a little lunch while we were there, and we just took our time, strolling and enjoying the beautiful park on this beautiful day. We arrived back at our hotel around 4:30 or so, exhausted and happy. It was a really wonderful day.
