Summer vacation part II Boerner Botanic Gardens Milwaukee

Botanic gardens are always on our travel list. We have found that gardens offer just enough science and art for Clint and I and enough room with unbreakable things for Caelun. Add to it the fact that admission is free for us  due to our patron status at Meijer Gardens and that makes them a must see on pretty much any trip we take.

Caelun always runs to the water features.

We take pictures of flower we like with the names so we can remember them later if we want to buy them.

There was a rather large koi pond that Caelun LOVED.
