Botanical gardens

sunday morning, we made a spontaneous decision to go to the botanical gardens. our trip started on a bad note when we discovered that our car had a flat tire. gladly it wasn't enough to keep us at home that day! a few hours and a trip to the shop later, we were back on track. we were happy that Nicole and Peter were just as spontaneous as us, and could join us despite all the changes of plans.
the afternoon was beautiful, the gardens still blooming, and some trees started to change. Ella and Peter spent all their energy running around looking at water fountains and enjoying what was possibly one of the last weekends of good weather this year...

can't decide which of these two i like more:
