Continuing our holiday in 2018. These gardens are in Queensland.
The first photo is one of the entrances. Found it pleasant sitting on the seats provided throughout the gardens, it was a warm day in winter at 30 deg C.
Date palms and one of the walkways to the gardens plus the cafe which is not open early in the week.
A way to the gardens below
Along the way
A lagoon and some flowers
It looks like a very pleasant place to spend a couple of hours.
ReplyDeleteIt was Catarina and at least is was cooler sitting on the seat in the shade.
DeleteLovely place
ReplyDeleteWe have our own MacKay Bay Park...could be so gorgeous...but run down...can't see the bay for all the overgrowth
Oh my, what a pity. Someday someone will come along at make it beautiful.
DeleteI am a big, big fan of Botanic Gardens. Lovely places to while away a few hours. Thank you for taking us to this one.
ReplyDeleteWe often visit such gardens when we travel if there is one, especially one with seats as my husband can't walk too far.
DeleteUna temperatura con 30ºpor aquí, es bien propia de la estación de verano. Se ve un lugar agradable para pasear y contemplar sus bellas plantas.
ReplyDeleteBesos
It's amazing how the temperature change for winter in different countries, then Mackay is in the tropics so one expects a warmer temperature in winter.
DeleteWhat a nice garden! Thanks for sharing it.
ReplyDeleteYou are welcome.
DeleteIt looks like a very nice place to wander.
ReplyDeleteIt is, a short or a long walk depends on what you want to do.
DeleteI reckon there is a lot more water there now due to that cyclonic condition up north.
ReplyDeleteReally the TV coverage of the flooding is scary to view. One has to feel so sorry for the people affected, but why are they allowed by councils to build in areas subjected to flooding of any sort?
Cheers
Colin
Not good the floods Colin and us with bushfires, Australia indeed.
DeleteSo many places in Australia where houses have been built with council approvals, and so many of them in flood areas - dreadful really.
Nice flowers
ReplyDeleteYes they are Adam.
DeleteOh so nice
ReplyDeleteIt is Jo-Anne.
DeleteBeautiful gardens. Another place I'd like to visit one day.
ReplyDeleteWell you never know, you might get there.
DeletePrecioso reportaje, me han gustado mucho todas las fotos. Saludos desde España.
ReplyDeleteThank you.
DeletePretty gardens, I love the Date palms, are they edible?
ReplyDeleteThey are to birds, but not all dates palm fruit it edible to humans I believe.
DeleteHello Margaret,
ReplyDeleteNice shots of these gardens. Wonderful.
Shot 8 is fantastic, what a wonderful view.
Greetings, Marco
Thanks, and NO 8 is a indeed a nice view, especially sitting on the seat in the heat looking at it..
DeleteValoro mucho vuestros comentarios y por ese motivo me he llevado un disgusto al ver que habían desaparecido de repente, todos los comentarios de mis primeras entradas al blog nuevo. Eso sí, me van apareciendo los comentarios nuevos. No me explico como ha podido suceder.
