Visiting Rizal Park

Before I start, I would just like to say thank you Bambie for finally hosting a purple meme! I apologize for not being able to join as soon as you launched it yesterday since I had stuff to do and had to go out. And you are very much welcome for the badge, glad to be of your service… :-D So without further ado, let’s start my now favorite meme:

Life and then Some

These pictures were taken when I took my daughter to Rizal Park two months ago. She chose to wear this since her favorite red dress was in the laundry, which I favored because it’s violet (my favorite color) :-D

We took a cab going to the park not only because my daughter was with me, but I also honestly didn’t know how to get there and commute alone. It also took me a while to figure out that I could have just rode the train or jeep and it shouldn’t even cost me more than Php20 to get there, whereas I paid almost Php100 when I took the cab. :-S Oh well, that was a lesson learned.

We went to the Rizal Park playground and paid Php10.00 per person as an entrance fee. The first thing that my daughter did was to run immediately to the dinosaur figures. If you still do not know, she’s in love with any dinosaur figures (be it drawings, cartoons, toys, statues, etc.). Of course, I used that as a photo opp. I know, I know, the first, third and sixth ones are not dinosaurs, she knows that too. ;)

After posing with the dinos, she ran towards the slides. I didn’t know that she would do that and I kind of wished that I had her wear pants instead. But nevertheless, she was very happy! Look!

After the slides, she went to the next available see-saw and had her favorite stuffed toy Lumpy sit on one end while she sits on the other… Don’t worry, I tried to play with her but she insisted that it should be Lumpy who should sit on the other end… LOL!

After see-saw, we were exhausted and sat on one of the benches. I bought a 1.5L of Sprite and we ate the sandwiches I made (hotdog sandwich, ham with mayo).

Rested for a while, and my daughter went back to the slides for a good 20 – 30 mins. Yes, she just stayed and played on the slides the whole time. After that, we went home tired. It was a great bonding moment with my daughter. I hope I could do that again. :)
