This weekend I meet up with my travel group at the Japanese Friendship Garden in Phoenix. It was a must after the crazy week I had.
Let's just say work is back to being stressful, including an "intial" warning...I know that I should and will work harder, but the real surprise was that the job was not what I thought it to be but I will do what I need to go because the economy does not appear to be picking up anytime soon. But anyway back to the peace and zen...
I was a little surprised at where the graden was located (downtown Phoenix) and how peaceful it was...I know that I will be going back soon...actually made plans with the hubby to go back next weekend and after looking at the membership prices, I will definitely be getting one for the hubby and I. After seeing the pictures he was a little disappointed that I did not invite him because his father spent 6 years in Japan, and he is very interested in the culture because of the stories his father told him.
Info on the gardens:
- names Ro Ho En
- 3.5 acres
- designed by landscape architects from sister city, Himeji in Japan
