November 18th, The House of International Cottages...

Such a cool place, I peaked into Scotland and Ireland (the homelands of our ancestores)...

We waited around for the stage show...during which time, Sam entertained the eldery folk who were waiting in their lawn chairs...he's definately not shy!!!

During the program, there were 4 countries represented...the first was Isreal... When Sam grew tired of playing/twirling one lady's cane, he decided to become part of the show...
Round One went to Dadda...But Sam had something in mind...
And he persisted...much to the laughter of those seated around us...
Round Two, to Dadda...
So after Sam's persistance, the drummer hopped off stage to share her drum with Sam! Round Three went to Sam with style!
What's in there?!?
Dance, baby, dance...
Or just stand (Sam had a long, fun day and was starting to show signs of tiredness)...

Some Philipino dancers... Another couple from the Phillipines...
It's time to go, dear...
A striking flower (or "ploweder" as Sam would say) Are those the honeymooners? No, just the relieved parents of a child who is now sleeping through the night...all 10+ hours of it!
A Dr. Suess Christmas tree...
The concert hall...an organ concert was taking place...we didn't stick around!
Part of a building...most were constructed in the early 1900's...so beautiful!

A candid shot of my redheads... Peek!
Peek!
Let me at the water!!!
Sam pointing out the moon...
The park really had something for everyone...Sam had the freedom to explore, I had lots of stuff to photograph and Adam had the joy of knowing that his family was having a good time :)
