My ideal picnic spot would be high up on a mountain after hiking up it! Have I ever done this? No, but I have seen it on tv, ha!

Who doesn't love a picnic at the park!?! That is our favorite spot. The kids love to go play and come back and forth to munch.

I love a picnic by the ocean. The sound of waves crashing is the perfect soundtrack to a lovely picnic with my dear ones.........

There's this nice little park we go to that has a water fountain and is nicely shaded. That's our favorite picnic spot.

my ideal picnic would be at the top of a mountain after a long hike and a beautiful view to take in while we munch on a much rewarded snack.

Ideally, a picnic on the beach in Maui is our favorite spot, but we also do lots of lunches at our local park- thanks!

Our backyard is great - Quick and easy clean up.
Also, if we forget anything, we just have to run inside!
XeniaSeptember 6, 2009 at 2:29 PM
We always end up at the park but my ideal spot would be on a beach. Listening to the waves and watching the kids play in the sand while I relax and soak up some sun. Aah, that sounds nice.

My ideal spot to picnic is in my backyard. We have huge beautiful trees to sit under and if I forget anything, its just a step away.
