Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew

Kew is enormous! You could tuck the Arboretum in one little corner of it and no one would notice.


Here is a shot from the upper walkway of the Palm House.
The autumn colours were spectacular.
The satanic demon in on the left...or is he? Hmmmm...
This is Kew Palace where Parliament would stick George III when he was more than a little looney.
And here is Queen Charlotte's Cottage on the other side of the garden, about two miles from the palace. She would retreat there when he became more looney than even she could bear. Candace thinks that is a swell idea and wonders if our back yard at home could hold such a property. Very funny.

Oxford tomorrow then I am off to France. Who knows what my WiFi situation will be there so bear with me.
