58. Port Royal Park, New Westminster

There was a geocaching event held in Port Royal Park today!  We didn't stick around for long - just said hi to a few familiar faces, signed the log book so that we could collect our smiley and then hit the playground.  Not that there weren't a few of the other younger cachers also making use of the equipment!  Look at those apartment buildings, looking right on to the park as if it were there own backyard.  I would love to live right on a park like that - Charlotte would be out there playing all the time!  She had a great time here, climbing the just-challenging-enough ladder, sliding down and starting all over again.

I chatted with another mum who had also been at the geocaching event but had come over with her boy - she gave me kudos for not hovering behind Charlotte as she climbed, but Charlotte really is pretty proficient at these things by now!  She should be after 58 different playgrounds so far this year!  Other than the event, there are no other geocaches in the park, but there is a nine-cache mini power trail around the eastern tip of Lulu Island that makes for a really nice 2.5-kilometre paved walk.  The park is located at N 49.11.664 W 122.55.394 and is point no. 58 on the map at the bottom of home page.
