154. Deer Lake Park, Burnaby

We were on our way home from nana and grandad's when we made an impromptu decision to stop off at Deer Lake Park.  The rhodos were in full bloom and we had a great walk through the gardens.  Charlotte had me read the plaque on every single bench we passed (kinda morbid!) and she asked everyone she met if they knew that she was FOUR - with four fingers prominently pointed in their direction.  We came across this climbing frame and Charlotte did a great job of climbing on it.  She fell off a couple of times before she finally managed to make it to new heights - but then she found herself stuck.  I had to guide her down as she was in a bit of a state and she made it safely to terra firma in the end.  It was nice to see her challenged by it as so many of the playgrounds have been scaled back.  I'll have to take her there again and see if she can get up higher next time - and more to the point, see if she can get back down again!  The playground is located at N49.14.416 W 122.58.277 and is point no. 154 on the map at the bottom of home page.
