Today after church we went down to Floriade with some families in our ward. It is pronounced "floor-e-odd." It is Canberra's celebration of spring. Weird. I'm thinking it's autumn.
Bamboo forest.
I can tell we'll have to come back another day to paint a gnome.
A sword juggler.
It really is beautiful.
Bonsai trees.
Wonder why Australia's colors at the Olympics are green and yellow, even though the flag is red, white and blue? It's because of this tree that is everywhere.
Floriade is at Commonwealth Park which is on the shores of Lake Burley-Griffin. Lake Burley-Griffin is a man-made lake around the Parliament. Canberra reminds us a lot of Washington, DC with the tidal basin and buildings surrounding it.
Black swans.
Counting for hide and seek.
It's a beautiful park.
