In Feburary 2004 Richard and I travelled to the Grand Caymens for a wedding of some very dear friends.  While there, four of us ladies couldn't resist making a side trip to the Queen Elizabeth Botanic Park.



 As we started down a path, we passed an adorable salmon colored cottage with a teal door. Continuing down the path we saw some lovely tropical plants - some of them in bloom.  Although the day was very warm we toodled around enjoying each others company and looking at some of the unusual plants.  



 A lot of the plants however, looked a bit stressed from an obvious lack of water. Perhaps we chose the wrong trail in the 65 acre park but I was somewhat disappointed in the lack of lushness. Frankly the gardens at the villa we were staying at were much more enjoyable (pictured at the bottom of this page).  



Although I absolutely enjoyed spending my day at the park with my friends (we'd probably have fun even in a junk yard), I would not go out of my way to revisit Queen Elizabeth Botanic Park again.


The villa we stayed in with our friends during this trip!
It was huge with 5 Master Bedrooms
