Sydney's Royal Botanical Gardens. What a pleasant surprise.

One blue sky winter morning in July, I went over to the Royal Botanical Gardens that divide the Sydney CBD and the Sydney harbor. The plan had been to go for a run but I  ended up so mesmerized by the gardens that all I did was walk around, reading the signs and taking photos with my iphone. Aside from the serene beauty of the expansive gardens within such a busting city, I was throughly impressed with the amount of information one could learn just walking around and reading all the signs that go along with the different gardens and plant life. I only made it through a portion of the gardens before my iphone died, but enjoy the pictures I did make it out with. Not all the photos are in this post. Click here to VIEW ALL THE PHOTOS.  Mom, a lot of the photos are taken with you in mind, so make sure to click the link and check them out. I was thinking maybe some of the plants I photographed could survive the Texas climate.
