Paralysis Park

I continue to make interesting discoveries about New Zealand's playgrounds. Kiwis do not discriminate when it comes to adventure sports. This swing is designed especially for wheelchair users! I've never seen such a thing. The handicapped will not be denied an adrenaline rush! I suspect this "devil may care" attitude is what landed them in a wheelchair in the first place.

The Kiwi children also have a need for speed. Check out this super-sized slide. Not an overprotective parent in sight! Undoubtedly, some of these kids will be riding the wheelchair swing in a few years.
