Arasaki Park and Le Soleil

Although it was cloudy we had a break from the rain and decided to go exploring.  We drove to Arasaki park to check it out.



 The rock formations were pretty cool!
 The only bad thing was that they were covered in these little bugs.  We could see them scurrying away from us everywhere we went.  After a few minutes everyone got over it.  We had to step on the rocks even though they were covered.  But with each step they ran away.  No one ever had any bugs crawling on them, so it was a win.
See the distand ferris wheel in the next picture.  Well we saw it to.  In fact we drove past the park Le Soleil so I knew it was there and that we were close.  We've been before and loved it.  After a little debate we decided to see if we could make our way to the park.  We ended up needing to go way to the right past the ferris wheel and past the end of the photo, but we made it.
 Beatrix was really enjoying all the beauty of the world around her.
 They have a pretty cool playground so the kids were happy we decided to see if we could find it.


On the way back the tide had came in and things got a bit dicy.  It also started to rain so we were kind of in a hurry.  I didn't want to get soaked making our way back to the car.  But Bob put Calista in the carrier and so we were able to move across the rocks pretty quickly.  I have no idea the distance but we made it back in about 40 minutes. 
We had to hold onto chains and stick close to the rock wall going back were as we didn't have to do anything like that on our way to the park.  It added a bit of fun intensity.  The kids kept pretending that we needed to hurry and race to the car because a tsunami was coming.
