ABKHAZI GARDEN IN VICTORIA, B.C., CANADA

Heidy-Ho, Blogging Buddies!

Alright.  I mentioned this garden in my last post.  I encourage you to read the story behind its beginning in with the history of the builders in the 1920s, their separate hardships during WWII, and finally their reacquaintance and marriage in 1946.  Check it out here.

This excursion was, by far, one of the most beautiful and calming I have taken over the years.  I am just going to post the pictures I took (there are a LOT!) with an occasional commentary.  I hope you can enjoy them even though they can't do true justice to the walk we took through them.

Without further ado...








The house on the hill below is where we were served Royal Tea.  It was incredibly lovely and we watched the sun set as we enjoyed the story of the Garden.














The little building below was a gardening shed built into the landscape.  It was a pleasant surprise when one came upon it.











I hope you enjoyed the Garden tour.  I know it isn't like being there... but I hope you at least get a feel for the peace and loveliness there.
