every time we come down this way, we pass by echo park lake, and it piques our curiosity.
for a few years it was shrouded in a construction fence while it underwent massive rehabilitation.
a couple of years back it reopened - and we still didn't visit.
today i told the girls, that if there was a good parking spot available, we would just stop, and rent a little pedal boat and then lunch at the new cafe.
well, there was a spot right out front.
it was the perfect day. there was one boat left with two front seats and a bench in the back for me. the lotuses were in bloom.
and lunch was delicious.
it really was a wonderful, spontaneous adventure.
a great welcome to our summer, and i hope a precursor for more adventures to come!
