Parental Visitation: Volume IX (Part One)

After braving the Skylon Tower, we enjoyed a great meal at My Cousin Vinnie's Italian Restaurant and decided we had just enough time to visit Niagara Park's Botanical Gardens before it closed for the day. It was my first experience at a botanical garden and it was amazing! It consisted of 99 acres of "beautifully maintained gardens, including perennials, rhododendrons, azaleas, a formal parterre garden, shade, herb and vegetable plantings, an aviary as well as [their] world-famous rose garden featuring over 2,400 roses". It seemed like we had walked right into an English garden in the middle of a movie or something, it was breathtaking. Ok, enough of that, on to the pictures!
