After lunch today we went on a walk to Christopher Columbus Park, which has a cool playground with lots of tunnels to climb through. On the way, Eddie noticed a balloon floating away in the sky, and pointed it out to me. Some birds were circling around it, wondering what to do with it, I suppose. It floated up very slowly, taking a few minutes to become too small to see. One bird kept circling it as it went up.
The playground was packed with kids! Eddie watched intently as they ran and climbed over everything. He also saw another pre-toddler climbing through the tunnels, and made friends. They pointed at each other and smiled a lot and got in each other's way in the tunnel.
After a while at the park, it started to rain, so we packed up and headed back. It stopped raining after a few minutes. We went through a little park in the North End, which had a cool seal!

We continued on our way along the waterfront, where Eddie saw a softball game in progress, which he thought was pretty interesting. Next to that was another playground, and Eddie pointed at it: Apparently he wanted to play some more! He clambered over this play set, and wanted to go down the slide, but I didn't let him (his clothes would be soaked.) We got off, and I helped him walk around. He headed for the swings. It's been a long time, I think—I wonder if he remembered what they were.
He still likes them!
