It's a place to go for long walks on idyllic spring or autumn days
It's a place to go to look at a zoo, though I didn't realize there was one until I made a wrong turn.
It's a place to go for a horse and carriage ride, although it does not last that long
It's a place to go to look at statues, fountains, architecture, and in winter, an ice skating rink
I'm sure there's a whole lot more there that I don't know about.
I have to say I've only visited in winter, and the first time there was snow, the second, none.
Both times it was cold, but this didn't seem to deter people.
But...
We escaped, before the real cold set in, and made it back to the hotel. We're going to return because there's more to see.
Like statues,
Sir Walter Scott, of Ivanhoe fame, a Scottish historical novelist, poet, playwright, and historian
Robert Burns was a Scottish poet and lyricist, He is regarded as a pioneer of the Romantic movement
Christopher Columbus, hang on, how did he get in this collection?
Fitz-Greene Halleck was an American poet notable for his satires and sometimes called "the American Byron"
And someone who's not dead, and not likely to freeze in the cold air, a drummer, who was doing his best to entertain the few people who stopped to list.
And he wasn't all that bad, either.
