Bicentennial Conservatory & Rose Garden

Bicentennial Conservatory & Rose Garden

This morning we decided to have a lazy Sunday and go to the Botanic Gardens and the Morialta Conservation Park. So we took part in a guided Botanic Gardens tour from 10:30 to 12:00. The guide explained the different plants in the gardens, where they are from, what is special about them, … It was very interesting! We then decided not to go to Morialta as the weather was warm (about 26°C), but clouds increased and thunderstorms where announced. Instead we stayed longer in the gardens and had a walk through the beautiful rose garden that is in flower at the moment and the Bicentennial Conservatory – a tropical rainforest house.

Then the weather got better again so that we enjoyed it lying in the grass and walking along the North Terrace. Back at home we were glad that we didn’t go to the Morialta as it started to rain 🙁 . We will now enjoy a nice evening and hope that you will also have a nice Sunday!

See you,
Verena & Johannes
