Hey Everyone,
We had to go to the airport today to pick
up some stuff so while we were waiting I figured I’d write my blog post for the
day J.
Dad and I are sitting in a little spot out
of the way where not many people go, every so often a plane will take off and
they are always SOOO close, it’s reallt cool.
Plus there is a nice view of a jacaranda that is about to explode into
bloom, it looks like it will put on
quite a display. There is a really nice
big one in incredible bloom at school at the moment so I’ll try and sneakily
get a photo of it tomorrow on my phone… if I get it confiscated I’m blaming all
of you hehehe J.
Now, part 4 of the Toowoomba Carnival of
Flower, now be aware, so far all of the photos I have shown have all been of
Queens Park, there are still several more parks and a private garden or two
still to come. I hadn’t realized just
how many photos I’d taken J I get really trigger-happy sometime.
The photos this time are of some of the
plants in the garden beds that were located on the main lawn of the park, I was
a week or two early for the major blooming, but they were still beautiful and
with a bit of imagination you can see how amazing they would look around about
now… sigh, if only we lived closer.
As always, I love to know the names of any
plants so if you happen to know the name, wether it be scientific or just it’s
common name I would LOVE it if you would be able to let me know in the
comments, I’ll label as many photos as I can with their names, but those I
don’t know I’ll just leave blank.
Enjoy.

hehehehe, found this funny quote
My neighbour asked if he could use my lawnmower and I told him of course he could, so long as he didn't take it out of my garden.
