Trip to Miami Whitewater Park

Lucas and the Lily Pad

I continue to be amazed at Cincinnati’s series of parks!  Seriously, they are awesome!.  This time we visited Miami Whitewater, a very large park, which included a medium-size lake, a splash pad and playground.  People can rent paddle boats and even stand-up paddle boards!   There were some small motor water vehicles there but not enough to disrupt the nature-watching.  The park also boasts nature trails but we were too tired from canoeing/paddleboarding in the lake and later attending the splash pad to check them out.  While on the lake we found a huge Lily pad (which I had never seen before), it was beautiful!

While I was on the paddle board, I overhear two women on a paddle boat talking (the sound in the lake carries!) and the conversation went like this:

“I would like to try that paddle thing but I don’t have the balance”

“Yeah, it looks really hard”

“I think I would fall in the water!”

I tried to pretend I couldn’t hear their entire conversation and nonchalantly paddled on by.  Ha!

After being on the water for a while we loaded the canoe/paddleboard in the car, had a snack and then the boys went to the splash pad.  They said it was their favorite yet!

Miami Whitewater is definitely worth a (re)visit!
