filled with lovely orchids
and lushly verdant growth.
There were magnificent roof lines, complete with fairy tale chimneys,
and ample statuary.
And while it wasn't in the tourist brochure, and we may have been the only ones admiring it, we also saw this totally awesome lace wing. (I think it's a lace wing, anyway. Any entomologists out there?)
The return trip featured a stop to eat dinner outside, on a patio overlooking a lovely Digit Lake. It was grand, I tell you, simply grand.

Grand indeed. Looks & sounds like somewhere I'd like to visit.
That last picture makes me want to be there.
Wow! Thanks for the pictures. It's like a mini getaway for me just to hear about other peoples getaways. Dinner not from a wrapper . . . . . ahhh.
Sounds absolutely wonderful!!!!!! YAY! Wish I was there too! Though I would NOT have wanted to miss our own outing. Too bad we can't be in more than one place at a time. :-D
I love botanical gardens, gardens, green houses and fun insects.
I put in the visual verification as shown and it didn't work--I know I typed it right.
OK, that's FOUR times so far that I have typed in the visual verification and been rejected! 5!
Sounds and looks wonderful! Thank you for taking me along :)
I have to look up verdant...LOL
Beautiful photos!
