    Ohh, this is beautiful. When I was there in November, the lake was mostly mud with a few small pools, and the sky was grey. Hopefully I’ll be able to get back there sometime soon! Or at least when it’s lush and colorful.

    Lorrie – if it helps, I was walking through the botanic gardens about two hours ago and there was plenty of water in the lake, the sky was blue and the sun was lovely and warm. :-)

  3. look nice – reminds me kinda of the Botanical Gardens in Christchurch, NZ. Kinda wishing I was there instead of here (Sweden) with no more snow :p
