I don’t go in the “big city” often. Mostly I feel like it’s not worth the time spent jammed in traffic to get there or the price and availability of parking spaces. Even if it’s really close it sometimes takes a long time to get to your destination. You see, it’s an island and I live off the island which means I depend on a bridge for access. Bridges seem to be the main attraction for road accidents, thus blocking everyone in or out of the island. Often enough to drive you crazy. And there’s also the road work. On. Every. Highway. It’s true I do like my little town surrounded by lakes, just enough city just enough country. But sometimes I feel the urge to get out, so that’s what I did on my day off last week.
I wanted to walk around the old part of town and also visit my favorite place in the big city, the Chinese Garden (part of the Botanical garden) while the Magic of Lanterns exhibit was on.
Here’s some photographs of our day, all taken with my Lensbaby.

I Love these Isabelle – the chinese lanterns are gorgeous. I want a dress made from that red fabric – just beautiful. I love the little details that you noticed in your day. Thank you for sharing these – whereabouts was it (in the world I mean!)
The colors are amazing! What a fun day I love when you get to be surrounded by color & pretty things
Oh Isabelle! These are so lovely. Which lens baby did you use? I love the last image of your and your boy’s reflection.
I have the Composer pro with the Edge 80 Karrie 🙂 Thank you xox
So charming! It’s gotten a bit cold around here, and I’m a chicken when it comes to the cold, but as soon as it warms up a bit, I think I’ll get out a bit more with my camera. 😀
