HUNTINGTON – CHINESE GARDEN

A stone mosaic floor in a courtyard.

 

A lose up of the floor, you can see how it’s made up of tiny stones. I took my flip-flops off and walked on it barefoot, and it felt nice.

I heard someone say these were lotus plants.

 

HUNTINGTON LIBRARY

I’m going to take a break from my Hawaii photos for about a week. On Saturday I went to the Huntington Library and Garden. I ended up becoming a member so I can go whenever I want.
