    • The largest park in Highland Park is called Donaldson Park. It is about a mile long and within it one finds tennis courts, a play ground, baseball and softball fiels, basketball courts, soccer field, boating ramp, and community gardens. Donaldson Park is also home to a number of indegenous NJ wildlife species (like Blue Jays, Grey Squirrels, Robins, and more). Also you find a very large number of Canada geese residing here. It's location alongside the Raritan River and the pond within it make it a great location for migratory birds. Also, you may encounter a heron from time to time.

    Also, Donaldson Park offers a great location for viewing the 4th of July fireworks. Every year, visitors are entertained with an array of colors in the dark midnight blue sky! It gets crowded so get there early! The fire works are fired from close to Boyd Park in New Brunswick so aim to be by the basketball courts!

    Directions: Take Second Avenue South all the way down to the park.

     You describe your restaurant experiences so well. I also had a look at them on your Barcelona page and I laughed to read about how you ate in a cloud of smoke. That was certainly our experience, too.

     Nice hometown page! I couldn't do a better job at detailed restaurant descriptions. Next time I'm up there, that'll be 6 more restaurant tips for my New Jersey page!    		Easty Sat Nov 1, 2003 01:14 UTC
