Don't you just love nice, sunny days especially if it falls on a pretty weekend afternoon?
Hubby and I just are so into hanging around the park on gorgeous days like this (see photo - taken at the Botanic Gardens). Armed with our picnic mat, sunnies, cameras, chocolate cake, soda, chips, book or magazine, we'd head off to the Botanic Gardens. Find our spot under the trees' shade. Watch the world go by. Or, read a magazine. Or, just take a short nap.
We'd enjoy the sunshine! We'd hear people chatter by, children playing in the grass, young teens playing truth or dare (daring to climb up that smoldering hot metallic horse statue!), couples spending nice quality time talking (and snuggling), a few photographers following the cockatoos and lorikeets, teeners basking in the sun in their swimmers (you'd think they were meant to go to the beach), occassionally a white haired man and woman walks by hand in hand so sweetly, a group of Japanese tourists taking photos of the bats hanging on the branches of the tall trees, a French mum pushing the pram of her so cute baby, some guys jumping around and making cartwheels on the grass. This and many other happenings we've witnessed. We enjoy lazing around together with the rest of the population who opt to spend their weekends outdoors. We have such a nice city, and quite a number of lovely parks to choose from. We've been to most of them in and around the city, but the Royal Botanical Gardens' charms tickle our fancy the most.
