The Triangle

We are blessed here in Austin, to have many different water features around town to go play in during hot weather. Here are the kids playing on Thursday, when we met some friends at this local park, called the Triangle. It's not even a park, really, just a great grassy area with fountains, situated right smack dab in the middle of some lofts and eating places. Makes for some cool, cheap, fun in the middle of Austin.

Here are the three biggest fountains going off in their "triangle" formation. I am sure it was meant to be all artistic, with the cool patterns and stuff they make, but the kids just like splashing!

 

Claire waiting patiently for mommy to get the other two settled before letting her venture out.

 

I am not sure why children think they need to drink water off the ground, but Claire joins in whenever she can. She loved splashing in the water that builds up at the center of the sprays.

 

I love this picture, 'cause of the expression on Claire's face! She is so excited that the fountains are back on. Just click on the picture to blow it up on your screen, it's precious!
