Days before visiting Washington D.C., I searched on google for a playground in D.C. to take my kids to. Google gave me this playground. I carefully looked at the rating which is 4.6 stars out of 5. I even called the place 2 days before leaving my home state in New England. Therefore, joyfully, yesterday, I took my three kids to the Kennedy Recreation Center playground around 6h pm. At the very second, I stepped in there I had butterflies in my belly. Although they were nice, there way a handful of drunk people in the kiddo area, one of them just stood up and peed in front of the kids and sat down to keep drinking, like it was the most natural things to do. I walked a little further in the playground by the swings. There, there were dead rats and mouses, some of them in an advance state of decomposition. I just grabbed my kids and rushed out of the place. I was uttermostly shocked by the unsanitary of the place. The worse, some kids, maybe from the neighborwood, were playing there next to those dead rodents quietly. As a mom, I believe every kid deserve the best of everything. They are our future! I used to trust google to provide accurate information. Apparently it is not the case. Google sent me right to a ghetto. It could have got my kids in danger. Now I learn my lesson to never trust google anymore and to quintuple check for a place when I will travel to a city new to me.
