Palm Sunday Picnic at Lake Balboa in L.A.


This afternoon we ventured to the north of Los Angeles City.  We visited Lake Balboa and enjoyed the perfect day for a picnic.  The Lake is kind of famous for its nice cherry trees, which are in full blossom right now. Of course, it is not nearly as exciting as going to Kyoto's cherry blossoms--or even DC's, for that matter-- but it was a very nice Sunday activity.  Next Sunday, Sunny and I will be in Taipei, Taiwan, and we won't be able to enjoy a relaxing Sunday afternoon together until the middle of next month, so we had a great time today.

It was only a 30 minute drive from our place in the South Bay, and it was well worth the drive.  Lots of ducks, children, dogs, soccer, boats, etc. Beautiful area to visit.

See more of our photos at this link.

We are so grateful for good friends and family!  Please come visit us.. we love visitors.  

(we're going to Utah for jonathan's cousin's wedding on April 8th.)
