Sightseeing in Edinburgh: The Royal Botanical Gardens

Yesterday, Nana and I took the number 8 out to the Royal Botanical Gardens, on the north side of town. Despite the rather blustery weather, and a ludicrously puffed-up art exhibit consisting entirely of lacquered boxes in empty, whitewashed rooms, it made for an entirely pleasant--and free!--excursion.

The photos below, I think, will speak for themselves.

 
  
  
No, Nana. We're not in Asia anymore!
(This was part of an exhibit showcasing the mountain ecology of southern China.)


  
 
 
  
  
  
  
  
  
Take that!
(Coming soon: Nana and the GIANT HEDGE.)
