December 18, 2011 - Morikami Gardens

We had never visited Morikami Gardens before.  It was about a 45 minute drive north in Delray Beach.  Here is Marilyn reading the sign.

The nice looking cafe which was closing early so we did not try it.

It is a beautiful place so these are just a small sample of the photos we took.

Some turtles.

A Great Blue Heron.

A nice butterfly that stayed still long enough to get photographed.

Nice flowers.

Jim and Chris.

A modern Japanese refrigerator.  The top is the fridge, the next down is the freezer and the bottom is a vegetable crisper.

History.

It was a beautiful day and an interesting place to spend it.
