The rain did not rain today. Just when I was beginning to make my peace with it. Such a tease.
After a relaxed morning (sleeping in, a few chores, computer stuff, reading a bit, etc.) I convinced Caroline to head out with me for a quick explore of the University's
Botanic Garden. It's just a short walk away. We ended up spending about 2 hours there, even though not much is blooming.

there were lots of lovely tulips in pots... fading but still gorgeous |
Unfortunately I have to pay £4 to get in so I doubt I'll be back much, but Caroline will go back with her camera and Chris, who can get in free with his "campus card".

timers are really helpful |

huge old beech trees growing on a steep slope |

they made a lot of noise when we showed up... "baa--baa--baa" |
The best part was the meadow full of sheep. So English.
