About this blog:
We love traveling. We always capture tons of pictures from wherever we've been and we like sharing our traveling experiences with our friends. So, this is how this blog began - as short stories with pictures in an attempt to share where we've been and what we've seen. Even not stories , but just notes. Nothing serious and big. Mostly I'm writing these stories on a rush and sometimes even don't have time to re-read them. So, I apologize in advance for possible typos here and there. There can be some factual errors or inaccuracies and they even might be corrected one day. Don't hesitate to contact me if you find something that needs to be fixed and don't expect these notes to be a perfect novels ;) The stories in this blog are not in chronological order, but I will try to remember to put the date of the trip. So... welcome to this blog and, hopefully, you will find something interesting and have the same feeling we had when we were there. Let's go...
And... by the way... all pictures and texts in this blog are protected by International and USA Copyright laws, so if you'd like to repost or use something on your page - contact me first.
Using anything published here without permission is violation of the law and... it isn't really nice...

Orchids and snow

Denver Botanic Garden is beautiful. It looks like a huge part during Spring and Summer. Thousands of flowers are blooming during this time and everyone is charmed by them. It's different in the Winter though. Not many flowers outside, but it is still a nice and gorgeous place to walk around.

But... you still can find something new there. Frozen waterfall, for example. It looks amazing, isn't it?

 

And I found the small waterfall at the end of the park was frozen too. Frozen kingdom, huh?



The snow covers the small pine trees in Japanese garden... This is really the Winter ;)



There were dozens of Henry Moore sculptures scattered around the garden in 2010 and they were moved out earlier in 2011. But a few of them stayed a few months longer and made such a nice view there. We all felt like something was lost when they finally removed and replaced with some other pieces of art.



Snow here... snow there... snow everywhere. Frozen cold and not much colors around. But everything changed once you step inside and walk along the gallery where orchids were blooming. These flowers are so magic! Their beauty is refined and exquisite and looking at them is so calming and soothing. It's like they say to you - don't you worry, the Winter is just temporary... It'll be Spring soon, and Summar will follow, but we are here now and you can forget about the snow outside... Just stay here and enjoy our elegant loveliness...
