A Japanese Garden in Adelaide

We visited a Japanese Garden 

It was a very hot day when we visited a beautiful Japanese garden.

It is a walled garden and when you go through the gates it is so peaceful.

The only thing that was not peaceful was the sun... and something else!!!!!

Can you guess?

I'm telling everyone Welcome to this beautiful garden!

Now this is the picture that I want you to squint your eyes and see what was NOT peaceful in this photo...

Can you see something that is sitting on that dome in the water. Well, it is a bird called a White necked Heron. and I don't like it.

That Heron was as fat as fat and was eating the big gold fish in this beautiful pond. 

I told him to move on but I don't know why, he just stood on that dome and every time a fish went passed he did a dive into the water and caught a fish. 

Now this is very clever, water drips into the bamboo and when enough is in it, splash... it tips up and comes out the spout.

I'm leaning over the pond to tell the fish to hide under a rock until the Heron fly's away.

Apart from that dumb bird it was very peaceful.

Hmmm. This is soft green grass to sleep on in the shade.

This is a Japanese Tea House. No tea is being served here today, I think it is far to hot.

Lots odd little waterfalls make a lovely trickling sound.

Arrrrr.... a good place to rest and ponder... You know, think.

Well do you know what I was thinking? 

My brains cogs were turning and I was trying to work out how to catch that bird with out hurting him.

I don't think my cogs were turning fast enough because I couldn't come up with any ideas

Well I'm thinking!!!!! What if I shared my toast with him? Do you think that would fill him up so he didn't want to eat fish.

He was swimming under those water lillies, while I was watching. 

Look OUT Bird!!! I hope you get a tummy ache.

This stature had a lions head coming out from the top. It was a wonder that didn't scare the bird.

Bye Japanese Garden. I hope all those fish go hiding.

Granny and I were so glad to get home and have a nice cold brrrrr... drink.

Then it was time for toast with peanut butter and  honey for supper.

Few!!!!

No bed clothes on tonight, I will just sleep in my fur.

See you all next week.

WELCOME
