Second time going to Edwards Garden


When the summer came, I selected some outdoor places to play with my son every weekend. On this Sunday, we originally wanted to go to the Coronation Park. After we checked the location from the google map, we found it was a little too far away from my home. We changed our minds on the highway. We went instead to Edwards Garden, which we had visited one month ago.

We remembered that people can go to another park named Wilket Creek, which is connected to Edwards Garden. So we decided to go there with other people. It is perfect place for jogging, cycling, running and walking. Because of so many trees on both sides of the road. We walked on for about half an hour to the Wilket Creek Park, which was a perfect place to have a barbecue. After having a picnic, we walked back to Edwards Garden.

When we arrived at, a famous song of Beijiing Opera was sung by someone. Led by the sound, we found a big outdoor party of dozens Chinese seniors. My son told me the sound was the same as what he had heard in Beijing's Black Bamboo Park, which is a very famous park in Beijing with hundreds of years of history. We missed Beijing again.

When we decided to go home, we came across another surprise. A wedding! The groom was of African descent. The bride looked like she came from Russia. The wedding looked very formal because everyone was wearing black or white gowns. My son asked me another question:"Why do they get married?" I answered:"They will traditionally have a lovely baby just like you!"

Overall, I liked this sunny Sunday.
