bronx botanical gardens
To continue our outdoorsey (is that word?) adventures a few us went to the Bronx Botanical Gardens. The place was basically a huge park that you had to pay to enter, that being said it was perfectly quiet. The park was so big that you rarely run into anyone else - leaving you with the feeling that had the entire park to yourself. We had a blast climbing on rocks and playing around in the “native forest”. The best part was when the park was closing one of the “rangers” slowly drove by us on one of the main roads and slowed when he passed us but didn’t stop ... he continued up another 100 feet or so and then stopped, pulled out his megaphone and alerted us that the park was closing. Thanks. How hard would it have been to roll down your window and speak to us. Oh well… and as usual I took a couple of pictures.
