A day in the gardens...


Another recent family outing, this time to the Huntington Gardens. We met Sherry and the kids at the front entrance and then took a walk around. We thought that we'd only be there a little while and be ready to go, but this place is huge! After a couple hours, though, the gardens were closing and we were nowhere near being done. There are a lot of different types of gardens: desert succulents, Japanese gardens, lily ponds, open lawns, statue gardens, a children's garden, etc. I don't think we saw even half of it. We'll have to make a couple more trips to take it all in. The kids had lots of fun, sometimes too much fun and it was hard to get them to move on to the next area. But, it's always good to get the kids out and there were lots of places for them to just run and explore.
