English roses


Everywhere you go, gardens. They're in parks and and beds randomly all over the city, and it's so fun! One afternoon I took a train out to Kew Gardens and spent all day sniffing azaleas and roses and flowers whose names I dont' even know. It was like I was in the credits of My Fair Lady when they show all of the beautiful flowers! For real--gorgeous! I love how flowers flourish in the craziness of a city.

And every time I see a particularly beautiful bush, I think of my mom and how she loves our little garden along the side of the house. I may be far away, but my family is alive and well in my thoughts!
