This afternoon, we took a trip to Floriade.
It is a flower festival held every spring in Canberra from mid September to mid October. It always is one of my favourite family excursions, not just because I adore all of the gorgeous spring bulbs in bloom, bringing the children out for a day of floral splendor! But because every Floriade marks the true beginning of spring. The colour, and the magic of this wonderful season, our gift of new life after a cold grey(ish) winter!
And I get a chance to take ridiculously picturesque photographs like these...
I thought this looked like two ladies in yellow bonnets chatting gaily in the afternoon sun!
Oh! I do love Floriade.. its been so many years since I last went! Those daffs do look like a pair of ladies in bonnets! It is so good to see the back of your beautiful friend home. You have been so patient and ever-loving... I can only imagine how happy he must feel too to be with ones he loves again; "where he belongs"..
ReplyDeleteOh, you must go again to Floriade one year! I would love to see how Nikon baby would capture it's beauty, in the way only you can!
ReplyDeleteAnd, yes - he is very, very happy and relieved that he is home again. And so am I.
