some more of the park...

While we were at the park there was a a family taking wedding pictures. Rob had the camera at that moment so I asked him to take a picture, he was embarrassed so he tried to be sneaky. He took the picture and turned off the camera, but later when I looked at the picture it was obvious that our little family doesn't go unnoticed no matter how hard we try. I especially like how they are staring right at the camera, and yes we were the only ones over there. I actually cropped this picture so that it was easier to see since we were pretty far away. One of our students said that the reason that they walk so slowly and elegantly is because the wig with all of the stuff in is is really heavy and uncomfortable. It looks cool in any case.





We tried to time our visit to this park to see all of the fall colors. Some of the trees had already lost all of their leaves but there were still some brilliantly colored ones in some places. This park is right up against a big hill, there are more pictures of it further down..









It was really chilly but Colette wanted an ice cream cone. As usual Rob was a good sport and helped her finish, and even helped clean her up after wards. It was like watching a lion clean off a cub after eating, only funnier. She kind of looks like a clown with her chocolate nose and mouth.










Colette had just given me a kiss. She even does the kiss sound now. She is such a sweetie. You can kind of see the big hill in the background. There are beautifully forested hills right next to terribly scarred mountainsides and bustling cities. It is really strange.















Oh sorry I thought I turned this one. Anyway this is the entry way to a ceremonial tea house that is in the park. I just love to see Rob standing next to these tiny doors. He makes them look like playhouses. Colette was awake but she was cold so she just cuddled with her daddy. This was near the end of the visit to the park so we were all pretty pooped.
