Rinconada Pool

The city of Palo Alto has a lot of parks. The Palo Alto 2nd Ward organized a group of families to go to Rinconada Park where they have a kiddie pool. Most of the pool maxes out at 18 inches deep. One section is like a beach; little kids can walk out and gradually get deeper into the pool.

Simon and his Mom had so much fun at the water park. Kelvin was able to stop by for a bit during lunch to play too (He just rolled up his jeans and walked into the water). Simon couldn't contain himself.


We were all amazed that eventually Simon walked up chest deep. If he fell over in the shallow end, he would try to stand-up by leaning forward and pushing his hands on the floor. This of course meant that he would start to drown himself. It was really funny to watch...of course we didn't let him drown.


After a big lunch and a 2.5 hour nap, we went to the Farmer's Market in Los Altos where we had some rotisserie chicken, roasted potatoes, and topped it off with a Nutella and Bananna Crepe. Simon had a full day...so we finished him off with some milk and a movie. Mom and Dad were tired of watching Shrek 2, so we forced him to watch Monster's Inc.
