About 5 minutes from my apartment is this massive park called Bois de Bologne (Woods of Bologne). So today, after class, my friend, Ferris and I decided to check it out. Because it's so massive (think Central Park but bigger--2.5 times bigger according to Wikipedia--and on the outskirts of the city), we only managed to walk around a lake that we found. Oh, and through this really random seasonal carnival that is there right now.
Fun fact about the park: At night is notorious for hosting lots of prostitutes and transsexuals. We have been warned numerous times by NYU staff members to stay away after dusk.
The lake!
Candid shot.
Waterfalls
Ducks. And I'm not sure if you can make it out or not, but there is a really cool building on that island in the middle of the picture.
More lake. And a person canoeing.
Trees.
You can rent those canoes. But as you can probably tell from the picture, it looked like rain, so we decided to save the canoeing for another (non-rainy) day.
Restaurant on the island in the middle of the lake. You can either canoe there or take the ferry that's on the right. Both of them cost money, so we just admired the island from afar today.
