BOTANIC GARDENS.

We had a special Saturday a few weekends ago walking around the Cambridge University Botanic Gardens.  We love plants and walking around and admiring them is one of our favorite things to do together.  It was a sunny but chilly day.  Thank goodness for a little cafe with hot chai tea lattes!  We brought a picnic and spread it out on a bench in the sun.  It was a very, very nice day.

Raf took a shining to the chair in the children's garden.  I think it brought out his serious side.

Look at this tree!  It looks like curly kale on a trunk!

I really enjoyed this tree.  I believe it is a native of California.  Go figure.

Wildflower garden!

Wildflower garden bordered by a very English hedge.

Vibrant colors!

The lighting and shadows were perfect, but the phone couldn't quite capture it.
