Finally, I am going to Toyohira park, it is just a minute or two walk from Toyohira station. When I arrived, the nursery was not opened yet. I strolled the park and was totally immersed in this lovely environment. It seem to be a short cut to the station for some working people, I noticed. While they need to walk quickly in my opposite direction, I strolled slowly absorbing the fresh crisp air along with some birds singing occasionally. I felt like a Disney princess. (heee...)
Towards the end of the park, I saw some flowers and followed a little path that lead me to a little wonderland of Corydalis ambigua. They looked sparse but are beautiful all the same. The Corydalis ambigua were in shades of blues, pinks and purples, very beautiful. I had this place to myself for a little while and was joined by a few others later. Some came with their dslr, some used their handphones. Some blooms were more beautiful than others, we did gave ways to each other though we don't speak. Flower power - harmony.
My photo didn't do justice to it. the cool fresh air, the peacefulness, occasional singing birds...soft breeze.........

| relax and listen to each crisp step I made on the dried leaves. it's like a mind message. |

| enjoying the flowers with a cup of hot chocolates, while the weather is cold outside, it is warm and cosy inside the nursery. watching people come and go, it's a thing I learned in later part of my life. |
Then I head to Tanukikoji shopping street. I walked only a section, stopped for a set Takoyaki, decided to return to do some washing and packing to welcome Mr. hubby. Then, we shall starts our 18 days driving around Hokkaido. I am looking forward to it. :)) Yeh!
This evening I visited the onsen again. I noticed one of the tree has started to bloom a few flowers . It was still closed a few days ago. I am sure it would be more gorgeous when they are fully bloom. An outdoor onsen with the flowers must be magical too. (it's an onsen, no photography) That's mean spring is really round the corner! I hope I could see lots of them.
Looking forward to tomorrow!!
