Further into the Garden

There is so much fun stuff in the garden that I will have to take a couple more posts to get through it all. When first entering the garden there is this funny chair in a pool of lily pads and frogs that kids can sit on. Once they are on it, a fountain goes off and the chair floats up into the air. Liam was a little too small for this one, but I am sure we will visit again when he is bigger.
All over the park are these big talking puppet statues. Generally they are telling the story of some fairy tale or other. I think this guy was the tin soldier or something, I did not really pay too much attention, but the kids standing in front were very interested.I think that every children's park includes a mini train ride. This was right next to the boat ride and since we just got off of one ride, Liam wanted to walk around a bit. He did have to take a good long look at the train and say "Choo Choo" a few times though.
This is another of the Fairy Tale puppet houses. Very often they have built these little houses that contain some sort of scene. I think this one was for Cinderella. Liam only liked to stop and look at the ones that had moving animals in them. He is not all that interested in puppets of humans, just robot dogs.
