Botanical Gardens Visit

It was a beautiful day and we decided to take the kids down to the Buffalo & Erie County Botanical Gardens down in South Buffalo. We are enjoyed the gardens and there was so much for us to see and experience. The kids especially loved the cactus room and Clara was especially excited to be there. She was fascinated with the many varieties  and sizes of cactus on display. They also liked the many sculptures and water features throughout the gardens and in particular the ponds full of fish.

We try to get down there once a year but it is usually during the winter. We like going in February when winter seems to be going too long. We usually go to a South Buffalo restaurant then too. This time was different being there with the grandchildren. I think we will do that as a regular thing when they visit and we have the time.

We could have stayed there for hours but we had little Violet who needed to get home for a nap. It was also a lot of walking around for everyone. So we left a little before noon and headed over to Kostas on Hertel Ave for lunch.
