More than a Glimpse Of Balboa Park
I continue with the trip I took  to Balboa Park a month ago now.  How time flies!  I can’t beat time anymore, it wins me constantly.
Anyhow, as Chandra and I left the Botanical Gardens, we got a closer look at the building that was on the other side of the lily pond.
We saw some devotees chanting “Hare Krishna” and I could not resist taking a picture
We saw people photographing the beautiful architecture
The sky was a beautiful blue, and it was a perfect day
There were beautiful cherry-blossom type flowers in the trees – I was reminded of Washington, DC
A really talented musician played for the audience using an Aboriginal-type horn. Â I have taken his picture before at December Nights at the Park. Â We could have listened to him all afternoon. Â He was very entertaining!
Going in the other direction of the park, closer to the Houses of Hospitality, which sadly were closed today (Saturday) – they’re open usually from 10 am to 4 pm (I believe) on Sunday’s – we saw the Organ Pavilion, also the scene of Diwali at the Park and December Nights.
This is also part of Spreckels Theatre – The Organ Pavilion
Here is more of the park
Pretty flowers….imagine what it will be like in Spring!
Sometimes, I can’t stop taking pictures.
There is art even outside the museums, and children will delight at the sight of it. Â They can even play in one of the structures, outside of the Mingei International Museum.
At one point, the wind started blowing, and it felt like it was snowing. Â It was snowing cherry blossom type flowers. Â It was such a beautiful few minutes, and very surreal.
This is outside one of my favorite buildings in Balboa Park – the San Diego Museum of Man – what a lovely building!
This is back to the area just outside the Mingei International Museum.
Well, I have to leave off here.  I think I may have run out of space for my media files – I think I upload too many pictures – infact, I take too many pictures.  However, you can never have enough pictures – it’s always best to have dozens of varieties  of each, then you can pick your favorite.  My problem is that sometimes I can’t pick properly.  I want to use them all.  Anyway, next time when I sort out my media storage situation – I might even post more pictures of Balboa Park.  Happy March!
