Some rain through the night and although rain is forecast for today we headed off in overcast conditions to the Botanical Gardens. There were more people there than I expected and we wandered to the conservatory. From the warmth of it we went to the Subantarctic Plant House and an arctic blast of cold air. The room was kept at around 8 degrees and the whole time we were in there cold air was being pumped into it. Back outside we moved on to the herb garden, succulents, palms, French Memorial Garden and of course the ever peaceful Japanese Garden with running water and bridges. Over to the lily pond and finished in the Chinese Garden. The rain held off and the sun actually peeked out a few times to make it more enjoyable. Back to the van for a lazy afternoon. The van two doors up are travelling with their cat who gets walked on its leash until it has had enough and then carried back to the van. Not often you see a cat out for a walk.
