Journey to 100 Parks #97 - Lakeview Terrace Park - Robbinsdale, MN

I wasn't sure we'd be able to include this one in our list.  Earlier this spring, I noticed the old structure was torn down.  Several delays latter and it finally opened back up a few weeks ago with a brand new structure.  We've been here a few times in the past and it was the spot that I met my blog friend Courtney for the first time.  You can see some of those pictures here.  It was definitely due for an update.
Key Features
Being a new park, it was pretty busy.  The large climbing tower was impressive, but had some challenges for Esme.  The only way to get all the way to the top is by climbing ropes.  Esme really wanted to climb them, but didn't have the confidence to really give it a go.  She ended up climbing up one of the spiral slides as a work around.
Parker got another shot at the comet spinner which he has grown very fond of.
The lowest level of the tower had a lot of fun too, including a giant Simon game.
The highlight for Parker had to be the clock spinner.  He LOVES clocks and is constantly saying "What time is it?" He had a blast setting the clock and telling me what time it was.
Another really great performance, but the limited access to the tallest slides drops it down to 9 swings.
