Pictures form last week
Made in the garden of the hotel
With my cell phone
Lots of aloe's
and cacti
more spines
more cacti
in all sorts
and sizes
And if you think the green beside the path is grass you are ....
Succulents! That's when I thought about Julie! ;)I think you would have enjoyed this garden a lot!
The weather was not hot but lovely crispy. I was so nice to walk outside without a coat.
To be in my room with the door open and breath in the fresh air.
Happy Cactus Monday!
'lovely crispy'...
ReplyDeletenow that is a wonderful way to describe something, including weather.

What beautiful photos! I love the palm tree 'mandalas!'
ReplyDeleteI believe the green near the path is called ice plant. We had a lot of it in Pacific Grove. It is a great source of water for the deer.
Maybe the camels like it too!
I called Ed (Mimi's husband) and I told him what you did. He was very touched but he still didn't let me speak to her :(
I'll email you later. I'm in great discomfort today but now that I'm sitting up I'm going to try to do IF.
I hope you're having a wonderful day!
love and hugs,
Lolo
