washington park
we're heading north for today's park. washington park has this feeling of being tucked away from all around it. if you wish to enjoy this park you actually have to go down into the park from washington blvd.
from the city website:
"Washington Park is located at the corner of Washington Boulevard and El Molino Avenue. Hours of operation are from 6:00 am to 10:00 pm. The size of the park is 5.5 acres. Large well-established neighborhood park with wide variety of facilities. Park is divided by a small natural ravine, or stream bed, affording a unique play environment for children. Park facilities include: two separate picnic areas; small parking lot; two lighted tennis courts; one lighted basketball court; two one-wall handball courts; one small softball diamond; small open grass area surrounded by trees; children’s play area with equipment; restroom; and drinking fountains."

I think whenever you pass a park you will think of your 1st child.
You might be right about that one. We can't wait to take her to the park!
This is my favorite Pasadena park. There is something about it being tucked down into the creek bed that makes it a little bit magical.
Totally agree. Not sure if I'm willing to call it the best Pasadena park, but it is certainly a cool place.
One of my good friends had a baby girl in October - he can't wait to take her to her first Dodgers game this summer.
already purchased a dodger's onesie! I can't wait.
Are you gonna get one for your daughter, too? (Hooh-ah! I'll be here all night!)
This two-level gem (traditional park playground above, tennis courts, basketball courts, strembed below) has terrific advocates in Friends of Washington Park, a group of volunteers who work proactively with city staff on park improvements.
