Little adventures

Nellie and I made plans this morning to meet at the Ballina playground. The weather was a little overcast, but the temperature was perfect. We arrived a while ahead of Nellie, and the kids initially played, but soon lost interest in the equipment, so we went down to the river to explore for a while.

I love watching the kids work and play together!

The kids did a little climbing and exploring, but the playground wasn't holding their attention.

We headed down to the river and Adele started right up a tree

Walter and Gordon initially wanted to throw rocks and sticks

But Walt soon decided that climbing with Adele looked more fun.

Then Nellie and Aidan showed up to help toss rocks into the water.

We then walked the path along the river, which the kids thought was a grand adventure.

The river trails spills out near the boat launch, so we stopped at a picnic bench and watched someone back their boat into the water.

We headed back to the playground to play with Nellie and Aidan a bit longer

Aidan was fascinated by the big kids and kept wanting to help or do what they did.
