Butchart Gardens, The last one

Flowers everywhere.
The Butchart Gardens in Victoria is one of the most beautiful places on earth.
This was our last excursion before heading into Seattle.
I had been hear once before with my Dad, on one of our trips.
When I arrived I was still in awe with the beauty of this place.

Everywhere you looked there is color and beauty.
I could not help but think about my Dad and what I was seeing, and burst out crying.
It is just so beautiful.

Me in the rose garden.

That is a real hanging basket in the sign.  It changes with the seasons.

This is what you see when you first look in the Sunken Gardens.

Waterlily 

Fuchsia

Zinnia's
One of my favorite flowers in the summertime.

Don't remember the lights from the lasts time I was here.

There was a band on the lawn, and people dancing to the music.  Could not be more perfect.

Color combinations was awesome.

Well I hope you have not minded seeing pictures of our two weeks  in Alaska.
We all had such a wonderful time.
The sights we saw were awesome
There is beauty all around us.
Enjoy life and that beauty.\
