Orchid Festival at Kew Gardens
My Support Worker and I visited the Orchid Festival at Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew on Friday, and it was magnificent. The displays inside the Princess of Wales Conservatory were stunning, with beautiful orchids, detailed jungle scenes, and a tribute to the Year of the Horse. They of course, had pandas, sea monkeys
They’re all great, but the monkeys are my favourite 🐒
I have such fond memories of this place! I used to go every year when I lived nearby. I was not yet using a wheelchair then, but even with my cane there were plenty of places to sit and admire the beautiful displays. Thanks for the wonderful photos!

Looks delicious!

My two Support Workers and I went to Windsor on Friday. None of us had been before, and we were thrilled when we entered the Castle and the man at the gate told us the King was in residence. (I, of course, said it was because we were there! 😊)
The closest we came to a royal sighting was a Policeman with a submachine gun standing outside, and…
This is so cool! You’ve definitely come a lot closer to Royalty than I ever have. How amazing would it have been if you spotted HRH and he gave you a little wave 😀
Awesome! Glad to hear the staff were nice. Were most of the areas accessible? I vaguely remember going when I was 12… many years ago!
