The weather was perfect and the gardens were amazing. It is breathtaking to see so much beauty in one place.
Our Lily - the most beautiful flower of all!
We also had the added bonus of this weekend being Kite Flying Weekend at Longwood Gardens. This was the first time we've flown a kite with Lily and she absolutely LOVED it!
We did not bring a kite with us (um...we had no idea it was Kite Weekend!). They were selling kites at the garden so we were waiting in a very looonnnnggg line to buy one when the craziest thing happened. A family was trying to cut through the extremely long line to get to the restaurant on the other side and came up to us and said, "Excuse me". Turns out it was our friends and neighbors! They didn't realize it was us at first...they were just focused on getting through the wall of people blocking their way to lunch. Our friends just so happened to be carrying a kite with them! Since they wouldn't be needing their kite while they ate lunch, they asked us if we wanted to borrow it! The other people waiting in line around us were ready to strangle us...but we were very happy for this bit of perfect timing!
With beautiful children's gardens, fountains, topiaries, tree houses, and more it is impossible to take in everything in one visit. We will definitely be back!
