Morikami Garden

Morikami Garden

After much begging and pleading the husband FINALLY agreed to go to the Morikami Museum and Japanese Garden with me (even despite the hot, hot, Florida summer day). And, considering his aversion to the heat, well, this was a feat in-and-of-itself. If you have ever been to Florida in the summer or if you are a native Floridian, you can sympathize with his feelings. The Morikami Museum and Japanese Garden is located in Delray Beach, FL. Despite having lived in Florida for well, the past twenty-something years, this was my very first visit. I admit, I was expecting a tad more splendor. However, despite my slight disappointment it was nice to sit around and enjoy the scenery. After the husband's third, "Wow, it's hot", comment, I made the decision that one more word and I would tune him out. Thankfully, he halted his complaints and enjoyed the spread of nature with me. Perhaps, if this were October or November, the experience would have been more pleasurable. However, it is July. July in Florida. Another twenty minutes and the husband may have claimed he were suffering from a heat stroke (dramatic much? yes). So, we spent some time walking around, chatting, laughing and coming up with numerous ways of how much more fun the garden would be if it were night and we were alone (not a word more will be said). We worked up an appetite and drove straight to downtown Delray Beach for a burger at burger-fi (no judgements, thank you). There isn't a picture, because, truthfully, I was occupied stuffing my face (and who needs a permanent memory of that? Not I).  Happy Sunday!
