Friday: Kew Gardens

Kew Gardens was worth the healthy price of admission. I took David as my guest, so admission for the two of us was 30 pounds, but Kew is on the same tube line as my stop across the street.

The Princess of Wales conservatory alone was worth the price, and who knew that a garden could be such a wonderful experience even in late November. Of course the glass houses were the highlight and it was almost hot inside with the sun. The presentation and the abundance of the plants was extraordinary and the wide landscape panoramas (without people in the winter) were heart warming.

I will let the photos say the rest....

Huge, calla lilies.

 Bad photo of an extraordinary brilliant metallic blue berry on a star-structure purple fleshy leaf.

And lunch and a lovely little tea-room luncheon shop in Kew.
