Quail Botanical Gardens

We went to the Quail Botanical Gardens a couple years ago and liked it, so I thought it would be fun to go back. They have a big beautiful children's garden and play area that I thought Ava could better appreciate now that she is older. I also wanted to practice using my macro lens and this was the perfect place. Papa and Nonna played with Ava and I was able to roam around with my camera.

Ava liked going back and forth across the rope bridge on the tree house.

Ava's favorite part of the children's garden was the sandbox. We had to eventually drag her out.
We tried to race the boats, but there wasn't enough water to keep them going.
Ava found a worm.

One of my favorite things are the plant people in the Mexican garden. I especially like the mariachi band.
