This place has everything: Glass, steam, bear traps, and just when you think the fun is over — knock knock, who’s there? It’s Black George Washington! All that, and a party room filled with human bathmats.
Okay, it has none of those particular things (RIP, Stefon) but yesterday's adventure did include 8,500 sf of the craziest kid crap you can imagine: huge slides, twisty climbers and an entire room where you can fire nerf-style balls at your precocious three year old. Not that we did that. Also, beer & wine and stumptown coffee. As my mother said when I described it, "how Seattle."
Since drinking a beer at a kid's place at 11am rather more loudly announces "potential drinking problem" than I was comfortable with, I opted for an americano.
I sipped my coffee and watched the baby (asleep in her carseat the whole time--perfect kid, I am telling you) while Stephen and Lu went nuts. After about 15 minutes I received a text saying THIS IS AWESOME! And Stephen never writes in all caps.
Judging by a flinging-herself-on-the floor and wailing NOOOOOO performance when we left, I'd say Lucy was equally impressed.
Balls!
OMG BALLS!!!!
Ghjdfhsdgs!! Arm flapping!!
Stephen valiantly squeezed himself in small-person spaces to keep our child safe. And to take pictures for my amusement.
This slide was actually really steep. I was kind of afraid I would shoot into a wall when I gave it a try. Lu was surprisingly brave.
Just so you know, I'm not going home.
And all this was CHEAP. Only $5 for all-day play and adults are free (unless you order a beer).
First reaction: AHH!! Are they trying to make us all insanely jealous!
ReplyDeleteSecond reaction: This is great! I look forward to living a Seattle summer vicariously through the family.
Nina and I just read every word together, on our separate devices, naturally. But then had to share the computer (uhgg) to leave comments.
¡VIVA SUMMER!
