The weather was surprisingly warm on Saturday. We originally planned to have lunch to celebrate my father-in-law’s birthday, and since the weather was so nice, decided to check out Japanese Garden after lunch.
Lunch was excellent, Ray’s Sushi in Hayward is very dependable in their quality. Lauren cooperated by falling asleep the moment we entered the door.
After a nice lunch, we set out for Japanese Garden which was only around 2 miles away.
Again, it was quite sunny and warm, much different than the raining days during the week. After we got to Japanese Garden, we found there were a large wedding party taking photos in front of us, so we have to move around a bit. The garden was exactly what I remembered, I’ve been here couple of times before, and it sure brought back some memories.
This time the wind is not as strong as last time, and Lauren’s in a better mood. She’s wide awake, and even spent some time watching the koi fishes in the pond.
I took a few nice photos, however, I didn’t have time to charge the battery on the flash when we left, I had to make do with the built-in flash which surprised me with the good job it did.
You can judge by yourself. Here are couple of photos.
