I love this place, I really do. Sure it's in Pasadena, which is a bit of a hike, and sure it's hotter than h-e-double-hockey-sticks, but it's soo soo worth it. I mean it really really is. We have an annual membership so we can go whenever our little hearts desire. One of my absolute favorite parts is the Children's Garden.
Everything is miniature and child friendly. 
Henry loves it there because he can run around in the fountains, climb the hills and run through the tunnels.
We were lucky the last time we went because there was hardly a soul there. This is one of our favorites, too. The Japanese Garden. It's just so beautiful. They have the loveliest grounds. We usually spend most of our time here. Just laying on the grass, taking it all in.
They have these huge fish swimming in the little ponds.
All the fountains spread throughout the grounds are just amazing.
They had a pomegrante tree:

I think I officially deserve a medal for the most photo's in one post. The rest of the photo's are in Flickr
Hope you have a great Thursday and get a chance to be outside and enjoy your surroundings. Go hug a tree.
