Last weekend ( actually Saturday ) was a planned day at Huntington Gardens in Pasadena , where we have been to many times previously . Having a Membership has really paid for itself over and over so far and we still have three month's to expiration date .
Anyway , I had received a letter from them .. which was a kind of Voucher/Ticket for two Adults plus Children .. to get in for Free . So all five of us had a wonderful day at a Botanical Garden - Museum's - Japanese Gardens and of course a Chinese Garden . But this was not the sole reason for going this day . It was also a Celebration of the Chinese New Year , with Dances , Dragons , Tai Chi Lessons and Kung Fu with different Weapons . The one thing that was missing or I should say , what I did not hear .. was the Fireworks accompanied during this Festival . They did have a Chinese Orchestra playing wonderful Music by the Lake , playing Spring Festival sounds straight out of China . A great day spend with many - many People and our good Friend and his Family .
Like most People , they almost had to kick everybody out at closing time .. it was after all hard to leave such a good time and place .
Time to think of Dinner , which was likewise great and to walk it all off .. what is better then .. an IKEA Store right across the Street . haha
I think we spend ( not Money ) but about an Hour or a little more there and off to go Home .
The last Photo is of the two Bamboo Paintings we purchased for some more Home Decoration .
