This week, we visited the Cranbourne Royal Botanic Gardens ...
It is a dry-zone garden with parts designed to look just like the Australian Outback. It's quite beautiful, but you definitely need your sunglasses!
There are lots of things for kids to do, like a great play-ground ...
And this fantastic water-play area where they have recreated a fast-flowing creek. It's only about ankle depth, but lots of fun. We probably played here for an hour or so, and Lachie would have happily stayed longer ...
Yesterday, we headed to a garden called Lamberley near Creswick in Western Victoria. It was pretty cold and bleak, but fortunately the weather got better while we were there, so we could have a walk around ...
I love this plant - I don't know what it is, but the yellow and blue flowers look so beautiful together.
We have also had a few visits to our local park which has a community vegie patch, a great place to wander around and smell the herbs and look at all the vegies ...
Here's Lachie sorting through some found leaves and flowers and bits of bark at home. This is something Lachie will play with for a couple of hours, especially if we put it all in a bucket and make stew!
