Day 10 – Queen Elizabeth II Botanical Park

This morning we woke up a little after sunrise and Anna and I took out the kayaks. LT ended up going out with us as well on his own kayak, while Olivia stayed sleeping. Both Thomas and I took out fishing poles hoping to catch fish we hadn’t yet. LT kayaked all the way to the reef and stood and fish from there. It was an easy quarter mile to the reef. Anna and I puttered around the whole bay, before eventually making it to the reef. We hung out a bit longer and ended up going in about 9am.

Woke up Olivia and tried to get everyone rustled up to head out to the Botanical Park. I was looking forward to heading to the park as I knew it was going to be wonderful. One the way to the park we stopped in a liquor store and picked up some snacks and a few beers for later in the day. When we looked up the directions, even on the website it only had the road name for the park and no street number. Not every seen that before. So after driving down the road for several miles, we finally saw this shop and stop it. It just happened to be a liquor store.


Now that we had directions, we were off to the races. A little further down the road and we were at the park. There were not too many people at the park, so we pretty much had it to ourselves today. The park had all kinds of plant sections, like cactus, palm trees, floral gardens, etc… Sixty-five acres of trails and they were definitely beautiful. Luckily the weather was nice and the clouds rolled in to cool off the day. We didn’t leave the park until after 2:30pm.
