Kenilworth huh?

This morning we went to Keniworth Aquatic Gardens. The girls complained virtually the whole time because although it wasn't too hot, it was about 96% humid. Which was just yuck. So we ended up carrying them a lot.

But we did see a lot of lilies, lotus flowers, the backs of departing turtles, and some good wildelife.

We ended up walking all the way down the boardwalk to the end, had a snack and walked back. The thing they enjoyed the most about Kenilworth? The sprinkler by the exit. We spent 25 minutes playing in the sprinkler.

Later, after "quiet time" (bwahahahaha!) We went out again, to the US National Arboretum -- I love taking the girls here.

We fed the fish. Q2 and C3 love doing this ... it is great when there is food left, it is such fun to see all the fish swarming to the food!

And walked in the herb gardens. I love the herb gardens!
Q2 liked the ponds

C3 liked going up the stairs, and through the arbor, down the ramp, and all over again!
