The first thing we did today was visit Kew Gardens. When we arrived we walked directly to the Palm House. It was amazing, the entire building was full of different kinds of tropical plants. There were two white, spiral staircases that went up to a second level where you could look down over everything. After the Plam House we ventured over to the Waterlily House, unfortunately it was closed. The walk over was lovely though, so it was worth it. We stopped to take pictures in a field of flowers. Next we went to the Princess of Wales Conservatory. There were beautiful orchids hanging from the railings and the ceiling. We walked around some more and eventually ended up at The Orangey. We stopped here to eat (the chocolate cake was amazing!). After this we went on the Treetop Walkway. It was cool, but I think it would have been better if the trees still had leaves. We climbed down from the walkway and walked over to the Temperate House. It was closed for restoration, but at this point we were close to the Japanese Gateway so we went there instead. There was bamboo, Japanese cherry blossoms, and a little house with a garden. From here we could also see the pagoda. It was almost time to go, so we wandered back through the gardens to the exit. We crossed a crossed a pond and saw a peacock on our way back. It was a great day!
