Only in Berkeley would you find a park like this... everything is hand made and the kids are encouraged (with supervision) to build with hammers, nails, saws and to paint wherever they want. It is a huge area with 3-story forts, slides and a zip line. A little high maintenance but they kids really enjoyed it.
Alex on the zip line.
Notice the upscale playground structure in the background.
Practicing with the saw and hammer- thankfully without any injuries!
Although it looks more like a junkyard, the structures are regularly reinforced by adults so they are safe.

Getting the kites ready to fly... this park right by the water is kite-flying heaven. The steady breeze from the ocean makes it nearly impossible not to keep a kite up.

Mason was very proud to hold the strings- his kite is the one in the middle way up there!

1st I am little frightened by the playground thing :-)....I am sure the kids were in heaven.
What a gorgeous day to fly kites. Paul's expression in the first kite pic is awesome. I can not believe that Mason was able to hold on to the kite when it was so far up in the sky....were you worried he was going to fly away?
how fun! my boys would have so much fun there.
i cannot handle mason's body in that last photo. too cute. and that playground is unreal. here kid, play with a saw. but how fun for a kid to be able to do stuff that I would never let them do at home.
Awesome park, my boys would love that place too - you'll have to take us next time we're in town !
