Cal Anderson ParkCal Anderson Park Capitol Hill Seattle WA - worth a visit!

Well I had a great day yesterday  - a little showing, some paperwork, and then a couple great walks and play time around Seattle neighborhood Capitol Hill.  It was a perfect Seattle summer day!   I wanted to go to Cal Anderson Park (corner of 11th and E Pine) because I had seen the feature on Evening Magazine on it.  After visiting the park, I also read about it in a great article on HA Seattle, because I was seriously confused while my children played in the texture fountain.  I thought it was the wading pool!  I was not alone as there were a ton of kids playing in it and dogs swimming in what must be the "reflection" pool.   I was pretty sure Evening Magazine specifically said a "series of toddler wading pools", but I will have to go back and review the segment.  So I brought my little ones along and we joined in with all the other people walking in the "wading pool" - or at least what I thought was a funky wading pool. 

Cal Anderson Park Fountain:  Not a Wading pool, but a fountain...You see, I have been to wading pools Cal Anderson Parkaround Seattle - this is one of the most fun things for a two year old boy, but I did think this one was a bit odd looking.  Turns out there were posted notices all over to keep people and dogs out, but everyone was in it anyway.  I did think the odd bumps in the fountain would really do a number on my little guy's head if he clunked it on them, but I stayed close and kept him semi tame.  The fact is that the gorgeous fountain is just that - a fountain and the wading pool is not part of the fountain at all. So legally speaking, stay out of it, but wow, it was fun!
