Bluebird Springs Park — Attraction in Florida

Bluebird park ranks a happy average. The area and park are some what small in size and layout. Most days I'm sure this works out great, but this small place can get busy on weekends.

After walking in the blistering heat you approach the kids playground that is directly under the sun. The touch of the playground is too hot to play on. There's a dog park if you want to call it that; it's really just a big sand pit with a surrounding gate. After standing there for more than 5 minutes we realize the whole park is really just a wasp field ready to sting you at any chance they can get.
