Botanical Gardens

On Sunday Holly, Sean and I went to the Botanical Gardens on Rhodes University Campus. We took lunch and ate under a huge tree in the shade. We had a nice time just relaxing and talking. I enjoyed walking around seeing all the different types of trees and plants.

 

 

Some more wording differences....

    The girls and I have enjoyed the word differences. Bree said she wouldn't be suprised if you came back using those words.
