It was late in the day as well as chilly, grey and overcast, but I had a delightful stroll through the garden.

Such a treat to visit your blog again and feast my eyes on your excellent photos. This post about the Tea Garden gave me a happy flashback to the exciting summer I spent in S.F. many years ago just before I graduated from college. I loved Golden Gate Park and my favorite place in it was the Tea Garden. Hope you have a wonderful holiday season and all the best in the new year.

Did you know that the 5 tiers of roofing on the pagoda represent the 5 elements? I didn't know that until just a few months ago. =P
