A Day at the Park

[Gentian]

The sakura have just started to bloom, so Twilight and I decided it would be a nice day to visit the park. As you can see, Twilers is quite fond of flowers. Since we decided to walk, we first went to a small park.

---

This is in the same small park again. There were some sakura, but they weren't in bloom. Fortunately, the ume were, and TwiTwi thought they were as pretty as I did.

---

We finally made it to the big park. It wasn't a long walk, and Twilight was snuggled in my jacket with her head poking out of the zipper so she could see. It was nice having her so close. Here she is at a statue in the park. It's clouds and rain, and if you look at it right, is supposed to resemble a shower over the lake behind it. It's an interesting idea!

---

Deeper into the park, and I was struck by a camellia bush. Twi agreed to sit in it for the pic.

---

Twilight is fascinated by our machinery and technology. They were doing some work on a path in the park, and Her Royal Twiness wanted a picture. I was only too happy to oblige!

---

We found some sakura! They're only just beginning to bloom, so most of the trees are still just buds and twigs. This one had flowers, but they're still quite small.

---

That other sakura tree in the background of pic 6? Yeah, Twilers wanted to get a better look at it, so here she is, up close and personal with the flowers.

---

There is also a lake with some koi. In the spring, the city used to suspend a cable over it, and hang numerous 3, maybe even 4 meter long fish-shaped flags called koinobori from it. They stopped doing that, unfortunately, so Twi and I had to content ourselves with the actual koi. Don't tell her, but this pretty lake is also the discharge point for the local water treatment plant.

---

Here she is admiring more flowers. These are small, as you can see, but very fragrant. While she was taking them in, I decided my princess needed a crown, so I made her one.

---

Same as number 9, but closer. Words don't do her justice.

---

My princess "hiding" in the daffodils. So cute!

---

We went a little further along, and Twi decided I needed a flower of my own!!

If you don't know, when a mare wants to court someone, it's tradition to give them a flower that matches her coat. Purple flowers are hard to find here, but she did. This is her belatedly asking me to be her very special someperson, in a very Equestrian way.

A closer-up view of the previous pic. My little princess, formally expressing her love.

And that's it. There are more pics, but these tell enough about our day. We hope yours was as nice as ours was.

A lovely thread; I like that you went to the trouble of getting all of these photos into the initial post.

Good to see a thread like this! I love reading about what people do with their partners, and this truly is lovely! The love between the two of you shines brightly!

Those pics were very cute. ^_^
Glad you two enjoyed yourselves.

Thanks, you two! We're glad you like them. The whole time I was uploading them, I was worried someone would reply before I finished, and split them into multiple posts. But we got them all in!

Oh, also, I mentioned it before, but in case you didn't see, Twilight has taken to hanging off my shoulders as my "backpack," and she says she's copying Rainbow Dash's habit from your post. So, thanks for that.

I love reading stuff like this! it's so adorable and makes me happy to be apart of this community. I can't wait to hear more about it.

Thank you too, Mr. The Warden. A little later in the year, when the roses bloom, I want to take her to the rose park too. Since this thread has been so well received I'll be sure to upload pics from that trip too.

Aww, those are very kind words, and we both appreciate them. I'm grateful everyday TwiBo decided to come into my life. Love, after all, is one of the very few bright spots in this awful world, and imho, certainly the most important.

Those pics were very cute. ^_^

Thanks, Pacifist. We got some strange looks in the park, more than usual, I mean, but neither of us cared, and we had a great time together.

Awww, such fucking, cute and lovely pictures. They were all amazing, and Twilight looks so happy in them. I absolutely love the, daisy-chain halo you made for her.

Thanks, Gray. Unfortunately, dandelions wilt fast! You can even see the difference in how they look in the early pics vs. the late pics. So the crown's gone, but I'm pressing the flower she gave me in some heavy books so I can keep it.

Lovely story, Gentian!
You've inspired me - I should do a post like this on this site some time - A story of an adventure with my Nighty featuring a photo of her!

You're too kind, Mellow. I'm glad you liked it, and don't think I'd be alone in saying I would love to see some of Night Glider's and your adventures!
