HARBORSIDE FOUNTAIN PARK  

Bremerton's newest park addition - and all I can say is WOW!! 

I had read a little about the park which opened in May of this year but had yet to visit.  What is called "Harborside" is at the other side of the Boardwalk.  I was able to walk up the stairs to the ferry terminal and cross over. I stood up above and looked down at this amazing park. The vegetation, the stone sculptures and the copper fountains - AMAZING!!

There are these five copper fountains that "burst" water into the air at different times and different intervals.  I had no idea. I was just watching the water fall down the sides when all of a sudden "burst" and with this loud swishing water sound out came this large stream of water. I was so caught off guard that I screamed!! I was the only one in the park so that made me laugh!!

I know this is a place that people can "play" in the fountains and I also had read that people are debating whether the copper fountains are designed after volcanoes or whale spouts.  I guess either could be right since we are on a whale "run" and so close to a volcano.  When the water isn't "spurting" they remind me of submarine sails. Guess that is the Navy spouse in me. These fountains where designed by the same company that designed the fountains out front of the Bellagio Hotel in Las Vegas - so you can only imagine they are amazing!

I can hardly wait until spring when every plant comes alive!! I will be spending some time at this park - it is like I said - AMAZING!!
