Krohn Conservatory

We hosted my parents Easter Weekend and loved being about to be out of the house and show them (and us) a little more of Cincinnati. And Adam LOVED having them here and getting to ride in Grampa's Truck.

We spent Easter Saturday at the Krohn Conservatory in Eden Park. I had been there before when Michael and I were dating but that was years ago. The Conservatory has several large greenhouses showcasing various foliage in different climates, and it makes for a lovely couple of hours to wander through and discover new plants and flowers.

And at places like this I get caught up in photographing the flowers. Four years ago on our trip to Panama I took loads of flower photos with the intent on framing the lovely exotic blossoms in some sort of collage in our home. I never did, but that's to say I never will. :) Here are a few I captured this day:

This Powderpuff tree was my favorite.

From the Conservatory we walked down to one of the lookouts at Eden Park and had a whole view of the river and Kentucky. And amazingly I didn't take a single photo of the view from here, or the view from Mt Adams where we had lunch, but I'm sure we'll be back.
