On the long weekend, I didn't feel like going away because most places are crowded and expensive. So, I decided to go to Lenin Park near my old house with my friend and Misa - my lovely dog. The weather was great, sunny but not too hot.
There are not as many people in the park as usual. Maybe a lot of people went to Reunification Park instead, which has lots more options to choose for kids. There are some old men playing cards, reading comedy books and kids playing football. It looks like a painting which lots of people and activity. There also are some people sleeping on the park benches and some couples getting to know each other :) It seems that lots of old people love coming to the parks not just to sit down and relax, but because they can meet other people and chat about everything, politics, the lottery results... while they have a cup of tea or rice wine. They seem happier being here than being home doing nothing.
My dog gets so excited when he comes here because he can run on the grass freely and sometimes he barks at people or chases the kids' ball. It's hilarious.

Public parks are great. That's one of the good things about the county I live in - there are alot of parks and they are all different.
That card game looks very confusing!
I love watching my dog run free on the grass. Does your dog run like crazy around in circles?
What game are those men playing?
Parks are wonderful especially if its well kept and clean.
I had no idea you could play something like Mah Jongg with cards - where do you find these cards, I wonder? Mah Jongg tile sets are ridiculously expensive here, so maybe the cards are a reasonable alternative.
That Misa is a cutie. Give her a cuddle from me!
I want to play badminton!
Another beautiful place you've taken me! Thank you!

beautiful park! i love plenty of lush greenery.
some of our park in SG have dog run area. it's a special fenced up area whereby owner can let their pets run freely without disturbing other park users.
parks are great. even in the heart of the busiest cities, you can find a peaceful grassy patch.
hehehehe! summer is coming TU....ready for the HOT days ?
Hello, you have the same dog than the Queen Elizabeth II !
As I read your post, the thought crossed my mind that people here and there really are not all that different. We all like to spend time with other people to relax, have fun, and enjoy one another.
Your park is very beautiful and I can see why so many people come to the parks...like you said, to socialize...and some to let the dog run freely. Your little Misa looks like she is really enjoying herself.
