More Ways to Waste Time reader Harriet just sent over a batch of photos of the Olympic Gardens in Beijing. In a word: INSANE.
Take a look:
Thanks so much for sharing these, Harriet!

I actually said "Holy crap!" out loud when I saw this.
WOW.
Wow...look what you can do with almost unlimited, almost free, labor! Those are amazing :o)
Myrnie_Twin -- yeah, there is that.
I'm not even going to touch the human-rights issues in China ...

Wow- the dolphins and buildings were my favorites! I wonder if they will keep them going after the Olympics- can you imagine the labor involved?
Yowza - I'd better get crackin' in the backyard this weekend.
First, I didn't train for these Olympics at all and now this. Yeesh.
so crazy, yet so fun!
I'm speechless...
Oh my goodness! And I am still battling to prune my lavender bush into something resembling a round shape ...
Those are NUTS. Thank you for posting these! And I didn't know about the ones in Albany either...gonna have to check it out.
Absolutely amazing!!!
