Recordist's notes
heard predominantly is the sound of a rowing crew practicing on the water. The lake, both on the water as well as on the path around it, is a place where many city dwellers exercise at all times of the day. It is also a sanctuary for much wildlife, and provides a safe haven for all in the middle of the busy city.
