 There is s little bee on one of the flowers...

 Ugh...

 A supermodel pose, lol...

 Inside the mediterranean garden...

 A monstrous bird of paradise...

 The fountain outside the RBG centre...

 There were really pretty mosaics...

 This arch actually passes underneath a major roadway...

 This aloe was easily 10 feet tall.  I could use it for my sunburn...


 Gorgeous lily...

 Cool pineapple flower...

 A butterfly taking a rest...

 The fountain in the middle of the rose gardens...

 I adore lilies.  These ones were called "Cover Girl" lilies...

 "Fair Lady" lily

 A pretty covered walkway...

 I neglected to make a mental note, but I think these are English tea roses.

Again, bad with the mental note, but I think it is a species of clamatis.

 This flower was so striking, yet being the dumbass I am, I failed to remember the name.

Wow! How very beautiful!
I have some clematis we just planted that very color. I can't wait to see it this time in about two years...it oughta be beautiful.
That last flower is totally beautiful!
My favorite flower of all time is called a black eyed susan. It looks a bit like a daisy - yellow petals with a brown cone center.
Looks like you two had a lovely time! I'm so glad!
what beautiful pics, ellie! what a gorgeous day! thank you so much for sharing these with us!!
Wow! Awesome! I love those roses! They are almost growing in a heart shape.
My stupid computer finally allowed these pictures to load...must be the dial up. I'm crossing my fingers that my blog pictures from Ten. loaded correctly...as I still haven't seen them loaded all the way.
I always joke about how I take pictures of important statues or buildings and then forget to write down what they are when I am on vacation. So, when I scrapbook my trips, I end up writing "some statue of some guy in front of some sort of library." Whoah boy. I win the "dumbest non-blonde award." Haha. ;) Nothing against blondes, really. I've been one once or twice. :)
Thanks for sharing those pictures! Looks like an awesome trip!
