A few days after Christmas we had a family picnic at Lane Cove National Park in Sydney. We were over there on holiday visiting our son and daughter in law.

Before lunch four of us went on an hour and a half hike through the park. My son and I mainly went to photograph birds, but it was hot and humid and in the middle of the day so we didn’t see too many birds, nor did we get too many photos.

As we went along I took a few shots of the various plants and flowers I saw. My wife would have liked to have accompanied us on the walk, but couldn’t due to a hip problem at the time.

When you visit Adelaide in South Australia I would recommend a visit to the Adelaide International Rose Gardens. They are only a short walk from  the CBD. Next door is the Bicentennial Conservatory and the Adelaide Botanic Gardens. A five minute walk away is the Adelaide Zoo and the River Torrens.
