Spotted In The Wild – Perego Skate

Traverse City, Michigan.  Looks as if it’s hard a rough night partying, doesn’t it?  Not to worry; it’s just been to a parade:

tc-pgskt-300I like the look of the skate a lot (though this one has a car seat attached to the frame), and the way the seat height adjusts up and down.  Being able to bring a stroller right up to a table is a real convenience.

Unfortunately, a surprising number of retailers have told me that they hate selling it, though, because the fold mechanism (at least in the early ones) breaks easily.  That’s harsh – one thing my vintage Peregos offer is real durability.

Love that purple canopy – very festive, don’t you think?

There’s something to suit every type of walker – from mostly level walks around pretty Lakeland villages, to more adventurous but safe hikes across windswept fells.

Ummmm .  .  .  “windswept fells”.  Sounds like memory-making to me.  Longing to share Wordsworth’s world with your baby-in-a-buggy? This could be the guidebook of your dreams.

Stroller Alternative

Heh, heh. This one’s for the strong-of-back and indomitable-of-spirit. And anyone else who thinks life goes best with a bit of eccentric flare.

It’s got a nice proto-alien look going for it, doesn’t it?

Peekaru for two.
