We have done visiting the Flora Garden and placed the edibles that we bought from the garden into the car. Then we walked a short distance to Allan's Water which is next to the Flora Garden. It was very quiet. Besides us, there was another car load of visitors.
Entrance to Allan's Water.
Entrance is free.
Allan's Water is a small lake next to the Flora Garden. It was a former reservoir converted into a recreational park for paddle boating.
The paddle boats were kept in the shed at the far end. We took some photos and watched the big fishes that came to the edge of the pond. We sat and relaxed a while.

Then Jehovah said to Moses,
"Take the elders of Israel with you and
lead the people out of Mount Horeb.
I will meet you there at the rock.
Strike it with your rod - the same one you struck the Nile with
- the water will come pouring out, enough for everyone!"
Moses did as he was told, and the water gushed out!
(Exodus 17:5-6, The Living Bible-TLB)

The yellow candle flower and lily of the nile are my favorites. I have never seen them before and they are spectacular!! The water is so pretty, and also the pretty little shed that you can walk through. No paddle boat for you?
ReplyDeleteThank you, Ginny. No paddle boat for us, we just pop over to have a visit, took some photos and left.
DeleteYou certainly shared some beautiful flowers with us today, what a delight.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Mamas. Have a beautiful new week!
DeleteNancy, why the water looks so green
ReplyDeleteI am not sure. It could be due to the algae in the water.
