The high tech and the low tech of Italian parks



The kids and I have found that the parks in Italy are on two extremes...either very high or very low tech. So far we've found four parks in Siena and we have already identified two as our favorites. There is the super high tech, brand new park down the street from our house. This park has a zip line that one would never find in the States (Karen, you are so right about that!!) and many other high tech balancing-type structures that are both challenging and fun for kids as well as adults.





Then there is the other park. This one is downtown and may as well be straight from 1982. The kids absolutely adore the merry-go-round with seats. It reminds me of the Tot Lot on Innsbruck Drive. Jaime, don't tell me this doesn't bring back fond memories!

Here are some other pictures from the park today.
