It was a Pro-D day today, and it was a nice sunny day, so I joined my grand-father on a trip to Burnaby Central Park. I haven't been there yet, but from the pictures he's shown me it looks so cool! There are squirrels that aren't shy, and they run right up to you for a couple of peanuts. We went earlier in the day because it was more quiet. He was right, it was so cool! We rode the skytrain there, so when we walked off the road and into the forest-like park, it felt like I was leaving civilization behind. Anyways, it turns a little chilly in the park, but its totally amazing. One time, my grandfather even spotted an owl! As you walk along the many trails, there are little interesting sites to visit. I think this park was designed to help people exercise, because there were little workout sites scattered throughout the park, each with their own little activity. For example there were one with 5 stumps, telling you to balance on them for one minute each. Another one would tell you to do a pullup on a bar. I've never actually seen something like this, so I was intrigued. We walked for a bit, then came to a place where there were tons of squirrels. We brought a bag of peanuts along, so we started feeding them. There were so friendly, but cautious not come too close. Some were so friendly that the climbed right up my leg and onto my lap for peanuts! It was very fun, and I hope I could come back to visit them again.
