法羅麗花園(Filoli)位於舊金山南邊30英裏,是當年加州淘金王伯恩先生的家。這座莊園初創於1915年,占地麵積654英畝,其中的精華是16英畝的花園,精華中的精華是三萬六千平方英尺的豪宅。法羅麗取名於伯恩先生信條的前兩個字母縮寫:Fight for a just cause; Love your fellow man; Live a good life.”(為正義而戰,為同胞而愛,享受美好的生活。)

法羅麗是個頗有意思的名字,除了第一個字母F之外,後麵的字母以o為軸,中心對稱。帶著女參觀了花園後,為花園的名字作了一幅畫。

一踏入花園,立刻暈了,腦子裏翻滾起見過的中國的、美國的、歐洲的皇家花園,心想這美國土豪的生活不賴啊,從規模到氣勢,不比沾皇字的遜色。

要不要跟著我們去法羅麗花園逛逛?

花園分為四個部分,每個部分以磚牆分割,互相之間用拱門相通。中心部分最大,以長方形的水池為主,池裏飄浮著熱帶的睡蓮,周圍是草坪和修剪成幾何形狀的樹籬。

孩子們總可以找到快樂的遊戲,把樹枝當作了彩虹杆,要從下麵鑽過不容易。

大樹底下好乘涼,無處不是藏身處。
