The San Francisco Public Park Experience

Yesterday was my first and only day for being able to go to my church back in the Bay Area. I found that after lunch, it has become a tradition for the high school and college aged students to head over to the park to play a bit of friendly volleyball with the English pastor. Being my first time back in awhile, I just follow everyone to the park. To my amazement, the park was bustling with people from all walks of life. It ranged from people out to simply enjoy the warm rays of the sun, to another volleyball court set up in the grass, to elderly Asians getting their daily exercise with handheld drums. The park was nothing but a large section of green grass surrounded by some bushes and trees along the perimeter of the park. In the middle was a statue of Benjamin Franklin. After setting up our volleyball court, our group of about 25 ended up playing for about four hours. During the duration of four hours, six completely random stranger asked and joined us. Many others simply stood aside and observed us having fun. It was truly a great experience being in such an open minded environment where strangers are not afraid to talk and join activities with others.

The public parks in San Francisco (big city) compare nothing to the parks in Irvine (suburbs). Irvine parks are generally smaller, but having expensive play structures for kids. On the other hand, parks in San Francisco are larger, but more plain with simply a green field. However, the park in the city are more packed with activity. The parks in Irvine are unfortunately generally empty. If you are ever in a city and pass by a crowded fun park, be sure to check it out.
