Renovated Water Park

On Sunday Dan and I took the kids to the "renovated" Water Park in Tianjin. Honestly, I didn't have high hopes for the renovation - it had been done rather quickly, but we were pleasantly surprised. We had taken the kids to the park on the Saturday after we arrived last year and it was pretty dirty. This year, it was clean, vibrant colors were everywhere, and it was so nice to see loads of people enjoying this lovely outdoor space! The only problem I found with the park was that none of the water features or fountains were working...oh well, one step at a time!!

One of my favorite things to do when we were out and about is to observe the locals. This gentleman was leading a small group of instruments and some singers. It seemed rather impromptu, which made it all the more amazing because they were really good and very flexible! We also watched a bit of dancing during our visit.

Eens continues to want to ride in one of these paddleboats. I'm really hoping that these are the next thing to get a little renovating!
