Lake Bonny Park was really nice. At first site, I did not think it had that much to offer, but as I began to walk around and explore I discovered all of its hidden beauty. Not to sound like an awful person, but we all know that this area of Lakeland is not the nicest kept place in the world. I was really impressed with how clean the park was. There was not a lot of trash scattered around (except for in the lake) and it felt like a safe environment. The grass was green and there were a lot of trees and such...it was nice. When I arrived, there was a baseball game going on. It really brought back old memories of when I used to go to the park to play and watch softball and baseball games. The playground looked like a good time. There were some interesting contraptions out there that were not around when I use to play on the playground. It made me miss being a kid...not having any worries and responsibilities...all you had to worry about was having fun.
My favorite place was definitely the board walk. I love water (aka lakes, ponds, oceans, etc.) It was nice to just walk around and look out onto the water. As I spent my quiet time on the water, I really got to sit back and observe the lake and all of its inhabitants. Every once in a while a fish would jump out of the water...falling down with big splash. The wind was really blowing hard. It made ripples on the water. The reeds were blowing in the wind, almost as if they were making music. It was wonderful. I not only got to observe the wildlife but I also got to observe people. I watched how they reacted to their surroundings and to others they were talking with. It was a nice experience!
