On Wednesday, Larissa, Arianna and I visited the Botanical Garden Center. We had a great time. Enjoy our self guided tour….
This area is well known for Bride picture taking and also Quincianeras.
We spotted one quincianera (15 years olds celebrated big; almost as big a celebration as weddings).
They have huge bird houses/hotels all through the park.
They also had huge lawn chairs….
Huge Magnolias.
The Schumacher House constructed in 1849.
Arianna is loving all the ducks at the pond. They just seem to follow her, thinking she has food!
On our way to the Rain Forest & Observatory area. This Cacti reminds me of the Saguaro in Arizona.
The Children's Garden area.
When we left there, we all decided that we were hungry for pizza. We went to Mona Lisa Pizza at the Rim. It was delicious. We had an awesome day together. 
Until we get together again! Happy 4th Of July to ALL!
