Sliding all the Way


Today we went to a park by the Yokohama zoo.  A friend, Rhonda, told us about it.  It's one of those rolling slide parks.  You need a small snow slider, or a piece of cardboard to do it quickly and safely.  Guess which one we had?

William had an absolute blast.  He went up more times than I can count.  We went on the big slide together, then William went all by himself for awhile on the medium slide.  Then he did the big one by himself again.  I was glad because it is a long trek up that hill!

Today is Greenery Day, a Japanese holiday.  So, there were was quite the crowd there.  The wait for the big slide was 20 minutes.  There are individual little plastic discs that you are sliding on.  

Also, it was the day where I drove on the toll road for the first time.  It costed $9.50 to go about 8 kilometers.  We took the non-toll road back.  It was most definitely slower, but infinitely cheaper.
