Seattle Japanese Garden

I grew up in a house with a Japanese garden in its backyard.  This is what my backyard looked like growing up (though no where near this large, it was still substantial).

Its nice to go to a place where you can connect with your past self.  The garden reminds me of fond memories playing in my backyard as a kid.

Whether its the Koi I would fish for (that I wasn’t supposed to) or the plant types, its good to be able to look back.

I particularly enjoyed the lotus flowers which I never had in my garden.
