The Best Playground in the World ...

or at least, the best playground we have been to. This playground is close to Oranmore, where I am from in Ireland. We went there last week with my sister Caitriona and her family. The playground is huge with lots of little hills. We all had fun.

 And Jack came running down

 Cara, Ailbhe, and Jack on the trampoline

 Ailbhe on her way up the rope tower

Ailbhe slightly higher 

Connell made it to the top, Fiacra is part way up

 Connell and I on the zip line. It zips along a bit faster than I like

Fiacra loved the zip line. Jack wouldn't go on it at all. Last time he was at the playground, he went on it sitting on his dad's lap. Unfortunately John dropped him face down in the mud.

 Connell joins the rat race

When I was taking this photo of Connell in the gerbil wheel, he was bending down lower and lower. I asked him why he was doing that. He wasn't aware that he was until I mentioned it. "It's very disorienting!" he shrieked.

Fiacra and Ailbhe on one slide, Jack at the top of the other. Jack shoots down these slides. 

Ailbhe on the trampoline, and Jack has come tumbling down

There is lots more there that we don't have photos of. It may not be the safest playground, but definitely the funnest.
