Botanical gardens, my garden and keeping away from the ducks!

Filed Under health/wellbeing |

One of my favourite pastimes is to visit Botanical Gardens. We often go to the local Botanical Gardens and have a picnic before strolling through the beautiful landscaped acres. I have also been to the Sydney Botanical Gardens and I THINK I have been to the Gardens in Melbourne when I was a kid.

I often think about the people who design these gardens. Is it a large landscaping firm like TruGreen? And how many people does it take to keep these garden looking as pristine as they do? They would have to love their job because in my case, I don’t like gardening and just keeping a small garden weed-free is a chore to me.

Luckily, DH loves to garden so my gardens don’t look too bad!

I sometimes wish we lived closer to the Botanical Gardens because I think it would be a great place to go for a daily walk. It would make your daily exercise more enjoyable if you could look at beautiful rose gardens and rain forest plants and desert type plants along the way, not to mention trying to stay away from the ducks because they now think that all visitors have brought bread for them!
