Well... now I can say I've been to the United States Botanic Garden. I went with my friend Chrissy and her little 3 year old nephew (who is super cute). We were adventurous and took the metro. It was only the second time I'd been on the metro, and it was really fun. It increased my confidence knowing that I can't really get lost on the DC metro since there's only one stop that takes me home. There are some interesting people who ride the metro. The walk to the metro was freezing. Colder than Utah cold, but when we finally made it to the Botanic Garden, it was a dream come true. It is an indoor garden and the minute you step in, you feel like you're in the tropics down in some South American jungle minus the animals. Here are some pictures of the outside...
And a picture of me in the inside. Can you see me in there? I'm right in the center there.
Beautiful flowers...
Hey girl! I'm so excited to explore DC with you. I added you to my Google Reader. I'm glad you didn't get lost on your first adventure!
ReplyDeleteThis sounds like a nice refuge from the winter weather. It was worth the cold walk to the metro.
