Hello, my lovely readers! Hope you’re having a fabulous day 🙂
Today, I’m going to share some photos that I took while touring the Winter Gardens in Auckland Domain with my friend B and her two daughters, S and Z.
The Winter Gardens are located within Auckland’s largest park – the Auckland Domain. It’s about a 30 minute walk from where I live, which is no trouble at all in nice weather. I was happy to “discover” it for the first time. This was one of many trips to the Domain, but I had never been to this part of the park. I’m so glad that they invited me to join them!
The Winter Gardens are composed of a courtyard bordered on either end by a cold house…
And a hot house…
The insides of both are equally gorgeous, and are the perfect mid-winter retreat…
These two had so much fun, and it was great to see the gardens through S’s eyes…

After touring the gardens, we met up with friends A & H and walked to the Duck Pond, where S was able to feed the birdies…
S was so cute. She was a little hungry, too!
And the best part of all? The entire thing was free. Didn’t cost a thing! Yet another reason why Auckland is a fabulous place to live {or visit}!
Wow! That kid is amazingly cute. Her parents must be incredibly good looking. 😉
Gorgeous!! I know nothing about NZ, so it is totally fascinating to see where you are living now!
What a beautiful day you had and gorgeous photos too. We visited the gardens when we came up to Auckland in June. Love that the museum is located there too.
What a beautiful place to visit. And the to little girl is adorable. Thanks for sharing such beautiful photos.

Your photos are fabulous! It [specifically the hot house] reminds me a bit of the National Botanical Garden up in DC. So pretty!
