Butchart Gardens

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Originally I went along with visiting these gardens to humor Donna. However I was really
surprised by how delightful this visit was. I have no problem recommending this stop to
anyone. Of course I took lots of pictures trying to capture the moment. However, I failed but
below is a sampling of my attempts.

 
Butchart Gardens exists in an old limestone quarry

This dry stream bed was a good idea. I might do something like this in our back yard
 
I doubt that I can ever pull it off this nicely though
     
 
     
     
 
The berthing area where we'd came in if we arrived by boat. I heard that they don't charge you if you come in this way.
 
The stairway to nowhere...
