Park 14: Totterdell Park, West Perth

This was a very, very pretty park. And in a highly random corner, hidden away from the busyness of a major road going past.

The slide there is... quite bad, the swing is OK, and the see-saw is joyous fun.

Park 13: Harold Boas Gardens, West Perth

Just across the way from Harbour Town, and right near the city, this playground is in a lovely public gardens.

It has swings, spinny things, climby things, a difficult slide, and a good pole.

Plus it's pretty and shady.

Park 12: Mueller Park, Subiaco

This playground is nice and shady, but not much for playing.

The main body is constructed of a series of ramps between platforms. It has three slides: one decent, one bad, and one baby-sized, and it also has naughts and crosses. And nice colourful plastic circles.

There used to be a great playground in the opposite corner of the park, but it seems sometime in the past few years they tore it down to build a tiny-kids playground area near-ish. It had swings and a really good slide. It will be missed.

Park 11: Shenton Park

Great park in Shenton Park, with two closeby playground areas.

There are four slides in total, two of which are quite good. There is a springy thing, 3 sets of swings (and another swing), a flying fox, a climby thing, a rolly thing, and Xs & Os.

Matty got beaten up by the kiddy swing. Twice.

Plus it has the epic surround of Jualbup Lake.

Park 10: John & Jean Mulder Park, Claremont

This park has THREE adult-sized swings.

There are lots of trees around, as well as a big random pile of rocks; both of which are good for climbing.

The slides weren't too bad. It also has a flying fox.
