Botanical Gardens


I was happy to wake up Wednesday to blue skies and warm temperatures—if you have to spend time in Florida, at least the weather should be nice—and I decided to go to the Miami Beach Botanical Gardens, which was about a thirty minute walk from the hotel.

The gardens were surprisingly small, and full of jungly greenery and few flowers—I had to keep reminding myself that I was back in the Northern Hemisphere, and Florida or not, it was still winter. But there were butterflies, and yellow warblers high up in the trees, and I savored having bare arms one more time before heading home to winter weather.
