Fun at my ole' stompin' grounds

Now that we're in Miami visiting family, I took Alex to Coral Reef Park. I used to play here as a kid when I attended Coral Reef Elementary. Sure, the three structures were there from the late '70s that survived the hurricanes, but it was all the new stuff that blew my mind! Playgrounds in Miami are COVERED and have equipment that I would have drooled over when I was a kid. Here's Alex enjoying the new and improved Coral Reef Park.

To quote Aaron -

"It seems his curiosity about how things work and what makes them go will not be hindered by such stuff as high pressure water, wet clothes and wet shoes."
