Josh attended a birthday party at Ma Wan Park last Saturday. If it wasn’t for the birthday party, we wouldn’t even have known that Ma Wan Park existed. I always lament the lack of good parks in Hong Kong. Now I’m thinking that maybe I just haven’t gone out of my way to really explore!
Scattered all over the park, nestled among its many attractions are big painted stones. They are usually found in pairs: One with just a drawing and the other with a quote –about love.
Here is one with a quote from John Lennon.
This pair of stones features a quote from Jean de la Fontaine, the famous French fabulist.
The love we give away is the only love we keep. ~ Elbert Hubbard

Wow that would be neat to come across. I love the quotes and the pictures.
How wonderful for children. Like an Easter egg hunt.
Those are amazing! Were there quite a few of them? I would love to have a few of them for my flower garden here. Maybe I should get to painting?
These are really beautiful!
How cool is that! It's a great idea for my cottage garden. I'm always looking for interesting (but tasteful) things to tuck in it. Thanks for sharing this, they are awesome!!!
Ya'll have a great day basking in your blessings!!!

What an interesting idea! So lovely and unusual. (And I somehow missed that you live in Hong Kong!)
So beautiful! That park also looks so lovely, luch and green! Sounds like you guys had a wonderful time.

These are so cool. You should print them out, frame them and line a hallway with them. They're so encouraging.
Thanks for sharing them.
THose are so beautiful! Something like that would be really pretty in a home garden.
Those are beautiful and so creative! I love the last one of the mother and her baby!

That one with the heart not painted in the middle and the tie-dye effect all over the rest of it is awesome.

and BTW, on the Sham-Wow from Aunt Lolo's blog, you could ask someone from the US/Canada to ship you some (or umm...bring some to you on a trip to China/Hong Kong that might be coming up in oh June). ;)
What a great find. Kind of makes me want to do the same thing in my own yard.
These are so neat!
