Hong Kong Park

Today I visited the Hong Kong Park. It's not particularly big, but it is beautiful.

Just a note: As in all places, young newlyweds visit the local park to take pictures. No different here, except for the hellish heat and drenching humidity. I saw a couple of couples out there today. It did not look fun for anybody. I guess the brides looked ok, but those poor guys in their black tuxes.

Anyway, on with the slide show (not really, but I like how that sounds.)

This building isn't really in the garden, but it's next door and it's pretty awesome.

Turns out you're not supposed to swim here. Well excuse me! I'm sorry was hot!

And, from a different angle. It's like I'm a doctor taking x-rays, isn't it?

At first I thought, "maybe I should wait for that cleaning lady to get out of the shot?" Then I realized that she's a person too, and why shouldn't she be in the shot? And then I realized I was so hot that I really didn't care who or what was in the shot (but she's still a person).

Huh, I guess that last blurb was kind of meaningless, huh?

This is a little Olympic... uh, monument? ... in the park. It's cute. It's a mini coliseum.

This is a shoreline they have at the edge of the pond. It's cute, too.

It's kind of like a turtle mexican standoff. Everyone was standing really still, waiting for the other guy to move. No one did. Cowards.

This was kind of nice. I was hoping it'd be a little cooler underneath (there's a path). It really wasn't.

Everyone's always walking away from me! Except that cleaning lady above. She's not ashamed to be my friend.
