Day 34 - Mainau island








Today we took the ferry to Mainau, an island in Lake Constance.  It has its own separate micro-climate to grow exotic flowers and plants.  There were 3 different playgrounds with different themes that the kids enjoyed.  There was a water area with rafts to cross the water and a water fountain that flowed down a path.  Another area had webs to climb and lastly a wooden train area.  Additionally, a sandbox under shade and several swings.  After spending time at the playgrounds, we went to the top of the island to see the beautiful home and the spectacular rose garden.  Gracie had fallen asleep but Jackson created a race game that involved running through the rows of roses.  We had a great time--a fun, relaxing day.
