The, umm, Junk Yard, Saturday
Marcus (who was as yet unaware of the influx of wee tiny people) stopped dead several feet from where the junkyard had been. And he stared.
The junkyard was still there. It was simply at the bottom of eight feet of clear, clean water.
...which was being contained by a chain link fence.
Somewhat warily, Marcus approached and wiggled his fingers through the fence. They got wet. Apparently this was actually happening.
The junkyard was now a lake of sorts. Where the gate had been there were now stairs, leading up to a wooden wharf to which miniature boats were tethered. Not just any boats, however. These were special boats! Scaled down, simplified versions of the classic Chinese Junk.
So, technically, it was still a Junk Yard.
The boats were ready to be played with, and came equipped with an array of water pistols and Nerf weapons. They also had a rubber bumper all around the edges, so bumping into another Junk would cause no harm.
The Junk Yard was open, and the Junks ready and waiting for any wee tinies who fancied a boat ride or a wee boat battle.
[There was just no possible way to resist turning the junkyard into a Junk Yard :D. Should you want Marcus, I'll be around in the afternoon.
Some more info: think of the Junks like watergoing dodgem cars, or bumper boats, motorised, with the same kind of controls. They sport a wide variety of moddable harmless water and Nerf based weaponry. The same Fandom magic that turns weapons to toys will ensure that no one drowns if they fall in; they will simply float to the edge.
ETA: If you have a ship in the junkyard, first, apologies - I forgot about them when planning this. Second, they will be fine and accessible at midnight when water et al disappears. If you need access today, there will be a magic corridor in the water which will let you in and your ship out.]
