a walk we will go

Sweet friends,
It was a gorgeous sunny day, yesterday. I jumped off the bed, and got ready for a walk :). Had a brunch and by the time I reached KL Botanical Garden, it was already noon. 

Me & my black chucks :).

Taking a rest under the Brazilian Nut tree, while looking out to the lake. They made a nice wooden platform with benches around the tree. Of all the beautiful trees in the park, he's my favorite :). Here, you hardly see anyone, let alone hear anyone's talking, just the songs of birds and the sound of water fountain from the lake.

This is him, my old friend :).

There are so many interesting parts in this beautiful park. Heliconia garden for one. Today, I like to share some colorful variety of 'Bird of Paradise' plants that happily grow here;

I love this sweet pink one. 

The blaring red ones.

The yellow ones.

Oh look, who's here?. A magpie saying hello :).

The maroon ones.

And the green ones. I really need to know their names!

See dark clouds building up?. I need to rush home :).

Soon it rained, cats & dogs!. I took shelter at one of the wooden gazebo and then later walked home. What an outing. I was just lucky to get some photos :). Hope you're not too tired!. See you soon. HUGS.

nature walk

Dear friends,

Yesterday I took a walk at a nearby park, Perdana Botanical Lake Garden. I felt that I needed to go out, being among the trees and listen to the birds. It was bliss to just sit on the grass and be still. 

me, sitting underneath a Brazilian Nut tree.

pieces of decaying nuts. love the wooden platform.

ferns on the great tree bark.

I sat there on the grass and just saw two people!. 

Such peace.

then came two Mynahs, enjoying their lunch.

I saw unknown flowers.

I hugged trees and felt their love. 

This one is a Eucalyptus tree.

some are so intriguing.

then I saw this trail. wonder about 'Frodo' hidden pathways.

saw a bee on a flower. So wished I had a powerful lense too. Hard to see him here, he's on the top left.

It's been a great day out. I'll be back, maybe do a little sketching :). Or read a book. Hope you enjoy our walk today. Hugs.
