Here are a few pictures taken at the New York Botanical Garden during the weekend which we spent with our new couchsurfing friends from Spain Alex and Diana.
These pictures were taken on April 14 2012 at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden. We saw birds (robins, a cardinal), lots of trees in bloom (magnolia, crab apple, cherry, lilac, viburnum) and visited the green houses this time, as well as the bonsai museum and the vegetable garden. It was a little crowded but still, it was beautiful day!
Last day of 2011. When we got up in the morning, there was heavy fog and a thick layer of frost on all the greenery around, which the sun failed to melt t
hat day. In the morning we all went to visit Jesper's shop Dinnertime then got the house ready for the New Year's Eve dinner. In the afternoon, we went for a walk to Brede, where an old textile factory from the 1800's has been converted into a museum. The landscapes that afternoon were magical. Happy 2012!
verdure environnante que le soleil n’a pas réussi à faire fondre ce jour là. Le matin nous avons rendu visite a Jasper à sa boutique “Dinnertime” puis nous avons fait un peu de ménage à la maison avant le diner de veille de nouvel an. L’après-midi nous sommes allés nous promener au village de Brede où se trouve une usine de textile datant du 19ième qui a été convertie en musée. Les paysages cette après-midi là étaient magiques. Bonne année 2012.
