20 Jul: Kew Gardens


On Wednesday morning, we headed to the Royal Botanical Gardens at Kew. Our first stop was the Xstrata Treetop Walkway, where we climbed 117 steps to the 59 foot high loop over part of the gardens. I held on tight when the wind caused the walkway to sway but the view was beautiful.

M liked playing at the "Climbers and Creepers" playground and the badger dens, where he met some other kids and played hide and seek. We walked across Sackler's Crossing, where we watched a peacock and listened to his call, saw the California redwoods, and got caught in a brief rain shower at the Chinese pagoda and Japanese gateway.
