Botanical Gardens

We have a Pass to the Biopark which basically lets you into the Zoo, Aquarium and Botanical Gardens. All of which are really amazing here! The whole family went the other day and had a blast. The gardens are so beautiful and it is so peaceful to walk around. They have outdoor concerts that we need to take advantage of. There is a really neat butterfly exhibit. You go into this enclosed area and they fly all around you, it is pretty cool to see. They also have a mini learning farm set up and a huge garden where they grow the animal's food. The kids thought that was pretty awesome. They also love the model train. They have this huge town set up with like three different trains running. They also have a Children's Garden that is incredible! They have the tower and caves. They even have this huge dragon that is a carved topiary that you walk under to get into the castle. There is so much for the kids to do and they didn't want to leave. Keith's favorite was the new Japanese Garden, it is really beautiful.

That place is soooo cool. It's nice to be at kid friendly places where you can get some personal gratification too.
