I love the blending in this as well as the simplicity of the scene. I also find it in character that Ed and Al are relaxing outside. I imagine they would do that frequently in Risembool since it's depicted as a serene and beautiful setting.
Oh me too! I was born and raised in the North East, and it is quite beautiful with the mountains and trees. I do miss it very much. Despite that, Texas has quite a bit of a charm.
Took me a while to adjust to Texas, cause I really missed the mountains. T_T
