ADVENTURE (nightmare, er I mean) PLAYGROUND

Okay what a beautiful day!
We drove to Berkeley and went to this awesome place called Adventure Playground.
Well, adventure playground is an out of the ordinary play area for kids and adults alike.
There are many "structures" to climb on and tons of ways to express how creative you can be.
They also ... get this ... hand out hammers, nails, saws, and PAINT. There are work benches and the kids are totally allowed to contract tetanus, almost cut off limbs, hammer their thumbs and all the while give their parents mini strokes by doing it all dripping in red paint that many times is mistaken for blood. Awesome stress free Saturday!
It was totally cool and my kids and Mom and Dad all walked away having had a GREAT time and with all our limbs intact.
PS The kids LOVED IT!
They even had a zip line that goes super fast into a huge pile of cement hard sand ... FUN!

After we tested the waters of sanity we walked the pier in the Berkeley Marina.
I got the most killer pictures.
ENJOY!

PS look closely for a Cohen joke by a telling picture.






In this music area you could bang on all this stuff and compare all the different noises. They even had the inside of a piano attached to a block of wood and the kids were running sticks across it. Totally fun!




















"Mom, take my picture. Look I stand corrected!"
I love you Cohen
