Has it ever happened to you that you pass
by a place many times and never take the time to linger? To me, yes, and very
often, unfortunately!!
One evening after dinner at Jiawei Chinese
restaurant, we decided to take a walk in the urban park behind Cornavin train
station.
I liked it so much that I returned the
following day at noon and, as luck was on my side, the weather was super nice…
So I took some photos with my smartphone and then I sent them to some of my
friends. To my surprise, they did not know this little park either. We called
it “The park behind the station”… actually its real name is Parc des Cropettes.
I wish you a sunny and relaxed Thursday, my
dear readers!
I'm not surprised you decided to revisit this tranquil spot, it looks really lovely and peaceful. You were so luck with the weather too!

DeleteI am so glad you took the time to explore this lovely place! Your photos are beautiful! Thank you so much for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI'm pleased to hear from you and thanks for your words, Linda.
DeleteAs you say, it's amazing what is under your nose and you don't notice it. I was in this park once for the Fête de la Musique, but never took the time to wander around. I must re-visit it soon. Love the photos, as always.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for your kind words, Cresta Bear! I'm pleased that you like it ;-)
DeleteFotografias espectaculares cheias de cor.
ReplyDeleteUm abraço e continuação de uma boa semana.
Muito obrigada pela sua presença e comentário. Um abraço ;-)
DeleteThis is so beautiful! I definitely feel like the places you know and visit the least, are often the ones closest to you. Mainly because you always keep putting it off, because you know it's so accessible. :)

I couldn't agree more with you, Jen. Thanks dear ;-)
DeleteWhat a lovely place! I really like these kind of parks, so nice to go there and switch off a little bit.
ReplyDeleteAnd finding a new place in our city is always a pleasure.
Have a nice and sunny weekend, my dear

It definitely is a wonderful spot to relax and unwind, for a few minutes, during the day. Thanks Taís for being here ;-)

Muito obrigada pela sua presença e comentário. Bfds ;-)
DeleteThis happens to me very often! Unfortunately, we do not pay attention to the hidden corners of the city where we live.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your thoughts, Charles ;-)
DeleteTrès belles photos. Ce parc a vraiment l'air plaisant et apaisant aussi. Bisous ;)
ReplyDeleteMerci beaucoup Caro ;-)
DeleteMy Thursday was cloudy and crazy, getting ready for my trip to Texas. But I had a wonderful weekend with my grandchildren. My first grandchild is a beautiful and talented fine artist, who graduated from high school! I especially love the tulips and poppies in your photos.
ReplyDeleteHello Judy, I'm so happy to hear that you had a fabulous time. Well, I guess she has inherited her grandma fine art talents. We are having a sunny and fabulous time here... Have a lovely weekend, Judy ; -)
