Brookgreen Gardens


Mom got free tickets from a neighbor to Brookgreen Gardens which we have never visited before but have always heard great things. We normally would not pick such a HOT day to go exploring outside but the tickets there only good for this particular day. We did escape into the AC for lunch and they had a kids zone were Anderson got to play with building logs and Karoline got to color. Needless to say we didn't get to see all we wanted because of the heat but even going for a few hours was fun.

The flowers and HUGE trees with moss are just stunning and we got to meet and see lots of animals that are native to this area. The snake was not a big hit :)

Karoline's favorite was the owl.

Oh, no. Now Anderson is going to want chickens to keep at home. That would be a good site for a spring or late fall visit. I agree with Karoline, the owl is a beauty. Hugs & hugs
