Flowers in the Rain

by fimbulvetr

Over the weekend, I had intended to mostly rest at home and work on personal projects. Needless to say, things didn’t exactly go to plan, and I ended up joining friends for a trip to the northern part of the island to visit an azalea park.  The park was putting on a small festival to celebrate the azalea’s blooming.

Although the weather was a bit inclement, the vibrant colors of the blossoming flowers shined through the mist. Most parks have a variety of plants that all bloom at different times, giving visitors something pleasant to see no matter what season they visit. However, there is something uniquely breathtaking in seeing a park bloom as one. It never ceases to amaze me how such small but satisfying gems lie scattered around this island.
