Tulip Time at The Botanic Gardens

It has been a perfect Spring weekend – sunshine, warmth and little wind. In Wellington we are very fortunate to have not only the bush and the Town Belt in which to wander but also The Botanic Gardens. Today we took ourselves off to the Gardens to ooh and ah over the magnificent display of tulips.  Words are not necessary…

The Gardens were teeming with people; young couples, older couples and definitely old couples, families with children all sizes and ages and dogs of every breed and some unknown breeds.

Many of the children were running around unrestrained and we noted this notice prominently displayed in a couple of places.

The afternoon finished with a cold drink for me, latte for my companion and water for Lotte at the lovely cafe set amidst all this beauty.  A perfect day in Wellington.
