85. Delamont Park, Vancouver

What a beautiful day! It was so sunny and warm, but we had lots of things to do, so we got an early start on the day so that we could get it all done and still have lots of time to play outside. I had a little shopping that I wanted to do in Kits, so we parked near Delamont Park so that we could nab a geocache and a playground at the same time. I had looked for the cache, "Historic Kitsilano" before, but had been unable to find it. That was back when it was hanging in a tree and I was looking in the dark - but by now, the cache has been moved to a much more cacher-friendly location and was soon in hand. Charlotte had a great time climbing on the little Jeep structure then sliding down again all by herself. It was a nice little neighbourhood park with lots of kids playing and lots of dogs passing through with their owners. Some of them paused to gnaw at a smashed pumpkin left over from last night! As we headed down to the shops, we cut along the old railway track to get there. I believe there is only one line in the area, so this must be the one that they wanting to put back into service again. I guess they had always maintained the right to do so, but the line sure is close to the houses and the playground! After finishing our shopping and having some lunch, we headed back to the car, passing through the playground once again. Charlotte had one more go on the slide before we were off to see Paula and Gabi - to make up for missing the birthday party last week! The playground is located at N 49.15.948 W 123.09.143 and is point no. 85 on the map at the bottom of home page.
