mellow yellow: special swing for special people





http://mellowyellowmonday.blogspot.com/


This special swing was at Orakei Park in Auckland New Zealand. Recently, I also saw one at the Gold Coast of Australia.

A great invention.

That is fantastic! What a great idea. I think we should have that here...it would be enjoyed so much.

I've never seen one like this before. Is it for wheelchairs? Does the front piece come up and lock the chair in? That's what I am imagining.

Swing for the wheelchair bound? a very ingenious idea!

This is for wheel chairs, and I thought what a great idea it is. They must be very expensive things as I don't see many around. I read a sign at the Orakei swing that some corporation had sponsored it.

The Orakei park was donated by the Maori people of Orakei.

Stine, I think your conjecture is right, on both occasions in Orakei, Auckland, and on the Gold coast, nobody was using it. I was also very pleased that no able bodied people went to use it.
