Saturday in the park I think it is the seventh of october...



It is a clear sky!!

This is Hama-rikyu Park, in the middle of Tokyo.

This used to be a villa for Shogunate, former rulers all over Japan. Now it is a park, full of pine trees and surrounded by many skyscrapers. Pine trees have been thought to be noble ones and were often planted in Shogunate's and Imperial's residence. A big pond has still remained and people can enjoy some tea in a house near a bridge.

In the park I can see trees of green, skies of blue, and clouds of white, but cannot hear babies crying.

Anyway I think to myself, what a wonderful day!

PS. Personally I like "Saturday in the park" by Chicago and "What a wonderful world" by Louis Armstrong though it is a little classic:-)

What a lovely park! I love the lagoon.
The contrast with the buildings in the rear is quite dramatic!

Dear Daily Photo blogger. I'm sorry for the generic message, but I wanted to get this to as many of you as possible.

I have set up "The Daily Photo Spot" on Fanpop. If you go there, you can enter your specific City Daily Photo blog (Add link). Paris, London and Dubai are already there, so it would be great to see all of you DP Bloggers listed.

While you are there, vote for the others!
