Exploring Our Children’s Potentials

Sometime ago I wrote about how I miss the outdoors here in Jakarta!

Within the city of Jakarta itself, families with children tend to be indoors more often (read: shopping malls or at home)

So, in our ‘quest’ to find more greenery and explore the outdoors a little more here in Jakarta, we checked out this place called ‘Taman Jogging Summarecon Kelapa Gading‘!

…

And what’s my  impression?

Well, I cannot compare this park (and its equipments / surrounding) to those clean and well-maintained ones back in Singapore.

Because outdoor parks really are not commonly found here in Jakarta!

So, to have one like this, I think it’s already VERY good, for Jakarta’s standard!

Anyway, we took out the kids’ rollerblades and both Anya and Vai had a good exercise around the place!

The first time they’re on their rollerblades out in the open again!

(Yes, they’re happy! =)

And, while there may not be McDonald’s around the park, hey hey hey … we do have easy access to cheap food and drinks at the car park area just across the park! =D

TIPS:
Avoid going to the park in the early evening. The mosquitoes are amazingly A LOT!

…

Btw, any recommendations to other outdoor parks here in Jakarta?
