@Iriene: The nice thing about walking around a park such as this are the discoveries you make along the way. I haven't been able to follow jhiroshi's directions as I haven't been back yet – but when I do I'll be keeping an eye for it 🙂 If you go to the park, be sure to look for it.

Well just past the cactus arboretum on your left there are some public washrooms. Coincidentally enough, it's underneath there. I think it may be called the sanitation museum on the map. It's certainly not the national museum of history. In fact, it's quite small, but if you appreciate small, offbeat museums, then it's certainly worth a wander. And I believe it's free! The other thing in the lake park, that I have yet to experience, because I always work at night, is the so-called "spectacular musical fountain." Actually it may be fantastic, I can't remember. They put the show on every evening in the summer, and I think just on the weekends in the spring and fall. It certainly looks impressive during the day.

@jhiroshi: What the crapper? I must've missed that on the map… If it's in the area it sounds interesting. Directions juseyo?

Am I to understand that you went to the lake park without visiting the toilet museum?!

Nice photos! I've never been there before, and they make me wish I had.
