Visiting Denver: playing at the park

Our hotel in Denver was just a short walk to a great community center and park, so we took Adelaida there several times. It was nice to get out of the hotel room and to let Adelaida play on the park equipment. She enjoyed the stairs and slides -- until she saw the swings! Adelaida loves to swing, both in a baby swing (so she can swing really high) and in a big-kid swing (she is very good at holding on to the chains and rarely falls off).

Here are some of the pictures we took at the park:

Adelaida's favorite place to go on the playset was the top of the climbing wall. She could reach that platform by stairs and liked to walk up the stairs to the top of the climbing wall and look out. It was an awfully long way down, so Dale followed her up there a few times to make sure she didn't fall.

The park was beautiful, so we decided to take some family photos while we were there.
