Chinese Gardens

After lunch, we made our way to the Chinese Gardens. It always feels relaxing to step into a garden setting in the middle of a city.

As soon as we walked into the gardens, we saw a lot of lily pads. 

Then I found some more turtles! 

It was a pretty view. 

Garyldine decided to be a model! 

Then we walked around the pond. 

We loved the lily pad flowers! 

We even caught a bee landing on one. 

Here's what they looked like from a distance. 

There was a nice place to rest. 

I found a rock that made a good chair. 

I wanted to pick one of these flowers, but my mom told me that I couldn't. We just took a picture of them instead. 

We found two giant koi fish! 

I found the picture of the tiger since I was born in the Year of the Tiger. 

Then we waited for the bus, so Garyldine and Grandma could go back to the hotel. I was really sad to see them go, but I soon found out what fun I could still have!
