Default Ky Japanese Friendship Garden

Last week, my wife and I visited the KY Japanese frendship garden, local arboretum maintained by the city of Georgetown, the town that hosts the Toyota manufacturing plant for the Camrys. Short drive from home. Took some of the shots around the Koi pond in the center of the arboretum

This looks like a really beautiful, peaceful and tranquil place to visit. I love the water lilies. They are so vibrant and just gorgeous! They really pop out at me.
