Century Park

The weekend before last we went to a park close to our home called Century Park (Shiji Gong Yuan).  It is a huge park with lots of things to do.  We went with another family, The Rocketts. 

 

We all had a blast!  After the boys played some football  and were a major attraction for the locals, we decided to rent a bike to tour the park, what an experience that was!!  After finally figuring out how much the rental cost was & waiting in line to get a bike, the journey began.  We rented a bike that had 2 rows of seats with a basket in front for 2 kids.  I can't even tell you how many people laughed at us as we SLOWLY move along the park trails.  Denise & I did most of the work which consisted of 2 kids in the basket, 5 kids either in seats or hanging onto the back of the bike. 

Needless to say, we were dubbed the "Clown Mobile" by our husbands as they saw us passing by - notice how I said Denise & I did all the work - the men walked around talking!!!  Ron took a turn before we left and the chain fell off on one side giving them only 50% power...he needed the workout!  We finished the afternoon with some ice cream and then left the park.
