2015.4.5. Japanese Garden

Sunday. Sunny in the morning, cloudy later, a bit of rain in the evening.

I finally made it to the Japanese Garden (after living here for 2 years). It's delightful. Many visitors on this chilly late afternoon. Very green at this time of the year. May come back in a month, for more azalea; and fall for maple color. Not many flowering cherry trees. The colorful carps are fat and healthy.

My favorite is this Flat Garden. The two green "island"s are sake cup and gourd. There're 2 benches you can sit on the veranda of the exhibition hall. The only drawback is that the crew started cleaning and moving around 5pm (the garden closes at 7pm) when I was sitting there.
