Hampton Court Palace Flower Show

I went to the Royal Horticultural Society Flower Show at Hampton Court Palace on Sunday. Good times! The brits do love their gardens, and for once, we had a nice sunny day.

It's such a beautiful spot, right on the Thames, and we spent a lovely day enjoying some very beautiful gardens and appreciating lovely flowers. And we also drank a lot of Pimms! But that's what you're supposed to do when you're out on a sunny summers' day!

We're off to Italy tomorrow, for Rob's birthday. We're going to Lake Como, which is supposed to be very beautiful, so am looking forward to that.

And, only 8 days until I fly home for a week! Yip yip yipeeeeeeeee!

Here are some pics from Sunday and the flower show:

A lovely wee garden, complete with pea-pod nook! (And Jessica w/ Pimms of course!)
