Gardens

My parents arrived yesterday (12:30 am) from the States so we have been sightseeing. Yesterday we went across the street to the Japanese and Chinese Gardens. My mom wore a pedometer and it showed that we walked over three miles.


Today we headed out to the Botanical Gardens and visited the National Orchid Garden. It was a great day to be out and the flowers were gorgeous.
Elyse saw this statue of a little girl among the lily pads and kept saying "hi" to her and then as we were leaving said "bye."

Elyse did not pick this flower. It was on the ground and therefore fair game.
When we haven't been out and about, Grandma and Grandpa have been having a great time playing with their granddaughter.
Mom and Dad brought Elyse this toy and Elyse likes to dance with it.
