On Sunday, we headed to the Royal Greenhouses, which are open to the public for about 2 months per year. It was crowded but not too bad. We allowed Eliot to touch plants with
one finger (pointer only, not thumbkin), which he found difficult to comply with but he did a good job for a 2-year-old!
The outside of the greenhouses are as nice as the inside. One thing we noted during this visit is that, although these greenhouses were much bigger than those in Chicago, Lincoln and Garfield Park conservatories almost seem as good because they have great architecture and really good displays. Plus they are free and open to the public year-round!
Here is a garden that was off limits to guests, we could only view it down a corridor. Chris got some great flower shots during our tour. Hopefully some will end up on our wall when we have our new home.
