Park of the Monsters

Mossy Park

In April, Beth took me to Italy. We visited a park that seemed to be in the country.

There were no swings or picnic tables, but there was lots of moss.

You have to look hard to see me in the moss, in this photo. You can also see a mossy wall and the top of some kind of decoration.

Surprises in the Park

There were no slides or climbers in this park, but there were things even better!

Behind me you can see the legs of a sculpture, created hundreds of years ago.

Monsters and Creatures

The park was filled with sort of scary looking statues. Most looked like monsters.

This one just looked like a lady with a thing on her head.

I sat on the ground and posed near the lady's legs. She was sitting on the ground, too.

Beth posed by the metal bar, that kept people from climbing all over the lady. She was made in the 16th century. She is very old.

When They Were Younger

​About a million years ago, Beth was 11 when she visited this park. The statue was also much younger, in 1969.  

Usually, I'm the one that gets to climb and sit on fun things. Beth takes pictures of me on flowers and riding on tiny turtles. She can only dream of doing those things. But long ago, Lucky Beth, got to climb on the Lady!

I'm jealous.
