Excellent Adventures: London: Kew Botanical Gardens

So jet lag has been the boss of me since we got back from our trip to London and Paris (read about the sweet back story here). Am only now getting back to a regular sleep schedule and being able to put two coherent sentences together.



First of all.... BEST. TRIP. EVER.

It's all a whirlwind, but the amount of beautiful, amazing and spectacular things we saw truly "wowed" us.

One day, we took the "tube" (look at me all British-like) out to Kew Royal Botanical Gardens. At over 326 acres, it's the worlds largest collection of living plants. We walked and walked, and walked some more, and kept discovering some truly remarkable gardens. It was created in 1631 and used to be someone's King George II backyard (for his daughters) before it was later combined with another neighbor's backyard to create the Royal Botanical Gardens.

 Kew Palace - just a little weekend getaway.


Princess of Wales Conservatory - they have rooms set up with different climates to grow rare breeds of plants. Such as....





Palm House with it's spectacular gardens and lake.





This was just one morning of our Excellent Adventures. I love, love, love all the gardens - my head was spinning with all the ideas I could implement in my own (slightly smaller) yard.

Hope you have a colorful week!
Love, Steph
