The ducks were a little feisty when we visited Lake Balboa in the San Fernando Valley, California. Our main goal in visiting the park was to see the blossoming of the Cherry Blossoms. They certainly are beautiful!

It's quite pretty up there. I'm sure it's looking extra nice with all the wet weather of late.

I haven't watched the video yet, but have you been over to the Japanese Gardens? It smells a bit because of Tillman Wastewater Treatment Plant, but is a magnificent work of landscaping. The old Star Trek, used the Tillman Admin building for exterior shots of Starfleet Academy.

Yes we have, Rory! We weren't able to show it in the video (it was pretty crowded, beautiful sunny weekend afternoon) but we have gone in the past. We definitely recognize it from Next Gen episodes. Nice photo!
