Out and About in Beverly Hills

On Saturday, we decided to take Maya outside to enjoy the beautiful day.  For the last two weeks, she had been the best sport, cooped up in her stroller as we zipped through Paris streets and in and out of London site, all in the rain and the cold.  A day outside was just what the doctor ordered.
After some research, Brad found a "surprise" park in Beverly Hills, and after some navigatin and questioning of the locals, we found it.  It was such a beautiful day.  Maya and Brad tried out every bit of play equipment and Maya made some nice friends in the bargain.  Beverly Hill is nothing without a celebrity sighting, so sprinkle in a sighting of Mark Wahlberg as he walked past us with his son, high on his shoulders (this made my day).  After a few hours of running around, we headed home, tired, tanned, and so glad to be living in Los Angeles.

Any piece of equipment will do, as long as there is a thrill involved

Wheeeeeee...

Maya:   "Dada, Maya want's this at home."
Dada:  "Rita, we have the space, might as well try to make something she likes."
Mama:  "Here we go again...two thrill-seeking peas in a pod."
