Every trip we plan, has a day or two on which we spend time outdoors in an open play area in the city. With the last few days of smog, I cant help but think of the unfettered fun times we have had in the free open play areas around the globe. The one above is from Amsterdam on our way back from Italy in June 2016. Everything was shut because it was a Sunday, and there was some football match. But the open play area, well, it was open.

Some of the most fun open play spaces we have visited have been:
Melbourne, Australia: Ian Potter’s Children’s Garden.
Singapore: Jacob Ballas Garden in the botanical garden and by far the most fun, since it was a water play area – Children’s Garden at Gardens by The Bay
What is Throwback-Monday?
What better way to beat the Monday-morning-blues than to think about vacation. Believe me some weeks it’s just the memories of old vacations and plans of the next one that keep me going.
So here’s a way to beat ’em blues with posting a vacation photo every Monday, right here.
- Post a photo of your vacation, with or without kids. Of course it should be suitable for public viewing.
- The focus of the blog should be the photo. You could write a bit about it, or not.
- It need not be a professional photo, but who needs to be a professional. With a great phone camera and some imagination, the stage is yours.
- Link back here so that your readers can see all the other great Throwback Monday posts.
