Dijon, II - Botanical gardens

Our first stop on Sunday was the Botanical Gardens in Dijon. Our aim was to give Eliot some romping time since most of the previous day was spent in the car. It was small but nice.
Eliot's favorite thing about the whole place was this tree.
He sat at its base, inspected twigs, dug his feet into the soil, and, at times, even rolled around a bit.
Then he became interested in sticking small twigs in this banister. Just goes to show that you can be in France, you can be in your backyard, toddlers like twigs and will likely be unimpressed with the cultural heritage surrounding them. So, we try to balance our desire to see and do with his desire to be without agenda. Works most of the time.
