Okay! I got carried away at the Botanical Garden located in Parque de Carolina. My favorite plant had to be the beautiful orchids, or all the cacti. The bonzai section was impressive. Carnivore plants-cool. Coy pond. The park was very busy today. No matter how much I try to dress like the locals, I am still easily identified as a touristo, as evidenced today by one of the park performers when he picked me out from the crowd. On the walk home, I watched a very competitive game of cricket in the park. I walk by this bike every morning on the way to one of my classes. Sometimes there are fresh flowers on it. I think the quote at the bottom is “but love is stronger”.
