Golden Gate Park (Part 1)

I was fortunate to have quite a bit of free time during my "business" trip, and decided to spend a large portion of that time at Golden Gate Park. The funny thing about the park, I thought, is that it is no where near the Golden Gate bridge. It's huge though, and very pretty. It contains a science museum, art museum, flower conservatory,botanical gardens, and many, many other things. In all my time walking around, I still only saw a fraction of the place! It was a great place to get some pictures.





One of my favorite places was the Japanese Tea Garden. If I had had more time, I would have brought a book and relaxed a bit!




An awesome bridge.


An authentic pagoda (and proof that I SO need a lens hood!).


The Buddha

Experimenting:



Near the museums was the Temple of Music. I kinda had a soft spot for this place!




Well, that's it for today. I have one more batch of photos to share, and then I'm done with S.F.!
