Welcome to bare tree park, where the tree's all forgot to get dressed. Or, err, I mean Bear tree park, where ferocious fuzzy friends await! This place was a real treat, and I ended up with more pictures than my computer could count on both hands. The first thing you notice upon arrival is the gorgeously sculpted trees. I passed by one of the gardeners on the way to the bridge, and I couldn't help but think he deserves a vacation.

When I read the sign "Bear Tree Park," I could guess there would be some bears about. What I wasn't expecting was more bears than you can shake a walking stick at. And these bears where very interesting indeed. We each got a cup of fruit to feed them from a slightly higher vantage point. They would make "please" gestures whit their paws to signal they were ready to catch it. It was a real sight to behold.
