Highdown Gardens

What started off as a day of heading towards the Laundry Mat (washing machine broke)
 Wound up as a day of painting 'Wild Flowers' from inspiration.

Where did we get our inspiration?
Well, that happened when I passed the washateria (on purpose) and kept driving only 5 more minutes to 'Highdown Gardens'.  This place is absolutely breathtakingly beautiful, and it's free! Truly some amazing English Gardens at their best.





After enjoying a delightful stroll through the gardens (we lost track of time!), we managed to get laundry done, and head back home to paint 'Wildflowers' (using chalk, cotton-buds, paint on coloured paper...I got the idea here.....http://kids-finelines.blogspot.com/2011/05/kindergarten-wildflowers.html)



Here's a photo journal of our beautiful Sunday stroll through Highdown Gardens
