Japanese Garden

This post is for my follower Rachel C.! She runs like the wind, is so pretty that last year I saw her from a distance at a women's charity fundraiser and I literally gasped and I am convinced is made of utter steel. She is tougher than I ever want to be and she is one of my personal heros. She would love this park and would run around or bike it til I was blue in the face.
Today we took advantage of the perfect weather and went to a Japanese Garden. Every park I have ever been to here is always brimming with people!  There was a rock garden, bamboo, a guy with no shirt or shoes on, a pond and playground. All the adults just strolled around and lounged. Everyone here has a dog and theyre always very well behaved. Theyvwere selling ice cream and other junk nearby but none of the kids seemed to eat any of it and I never saw the kids eat anything and only saw them drink water. No one seemed to be in a hurry, I didn't see a single kid in a sports uniform anywhere in town making me think little league must not be a thing here. It seems people here have a lot more leisure time than I am used to in the states. Curtis was the only person with their face buried in their smart phone.

  4. So serene. And think...an American, in France, in a Japanese garden. You should be crying joyful tears of culture overload.
