Water fun!

Our hometown recently built a brand-new park right on the waterfront. It is sandwiched between the ferry terminal and the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard on what used to be a hideous little strip of dirt. Now, there are 5 fountains that resemble a fleet of submarines heading out to sea that spray water at random intervals. And these suckers really let it rip! Each one of them is surrounded by its own wading pool, and the water is always perfect! It is beautifully landscaped, and there are neat little rock sculptures (some are even carved into seats and "hammocks") where you can sit and watch the ferries come and go. It is one of my favorite new places to take my daughter. It doesn't matter how many times the fountains spray, she squeals and points every time! You know what? I usually do, too!
