I thought we were doing The Japanese Garden Project. I was going to do my photo essay next week.

There is a stop at Woodley right by this joint on the Orange Line, for the record, so it is totes accesible by public transit.

This is a beautiful spot, just one among many japanese style gardens in LA. For a better understanding of how this gardening style evolved here in the US, see the current exhibit at the Japanese American National Museum downtown and accompanying website. I've written a bit about it and included links in my post at http://lexinla.blogspot.com/2007_06_01_archive.html
