Botanical Gardens

Last month, Mike, Olivia, and I went to Southeast Botanical Gardens. It is a little piece of paradise here on Okinawa. It's located right around the corner from our house. If we weren't surrounded by the base gate and fence, we would be able to walk to it! Its basically just a giant garden, but it is so beautiful. They have hundreds of tropical plants and flowers and even grow their own passion fruit. I just realized I never posted pictures of it here on the blog.

A little Off-roading for the stroller


Definately a place for to go to for whoever comes to visit us!


Silly tourists





We took this train that toured around the gardens. It was a good idea at first, but then we realized the tour guide only spoke Japanese. So we had no idea what was going on. People were "ooohhing" and "aahhhing", and we just sat there. The only word we knew was "shopping" and "pineapple"- apparently they are the same in English.




Warning: The tree sways back and forth when the wind blows.
