The Royal Botanical Gardens.

We went to the Royal Botanical Gardens which was delightful in the rain, I am sure the colours come out better when the sun is not around. First came the Japanese Gardens and the Bridge and then we shivered in the Subantarctic House so we didn't hang around too long in there. The roses round the arches along the walls made an excellent backdrop for two handsome old boys and then they were joined by another old boy made out of King Billy Pine! The wide variety of trees in the gardens makes one realise how lucky we are to have had people in the past with such forethought and vision.
