Peninsula Park Revisited - N Portland - 4.30.23

 I was apprehensive about revisiting Peninsula Park. What if they'd taken out the vintage play structure with the giant blue tube within the last 14 years? I'd be very sad indeed.

But good news, y'all...

IT'S STILL THERE.




There have been a few minor changes to the playground, as far as I could tell. The rings and swinging trapeze bar seem to have disappeared.

Also, the long metal slide was replaced with this blue curly one....





The Space-Age curly slide is still there, though.







I can't believe that yellow curly slide is still hanging on!






And there are plenty of other metal slides here to burn bums on a hot day.



And though I didn't get a photo of that area this time, the splash pad IS still there... but it's fenced off/inaccessible.

So that's Peninsula Park revisited! May they never get rid of that play structure.
