Parks

Ben & a random friend off together, bottom-right

Two things about parks here: (1) they have things in them that would attract lawsuits in the US like white on rice, and (2) I rarely see parents at the park on their phones. I'm not trying to dog the US - I miss it incredibly; but these things just pop out at me while at the park.

Ben has been having the time of his life on a 100-foot zip line (which I also had & loved at a park in my hometown in Texas), and this insane giant, twirly swing thing that fires kids off in a corkscrew fashion around a telephone-sized-pole at incredible speeds. Pictures to follow later!
