Children and flowers. Trip 2.

Our incredible adventure continues! Yesterday we remembered that we had it in nature, or rather in the Donetsk Botanical Garden. 

Our cheerful and noisy company arrived at the Botanical Garden in the morning, fearing familiar already, but so exhausted heat. But the weather has pleased us transparent light clouds and a fresh wind. Tour began with a visit to a greenhouse complex. 

A variety of flavors and warm moist air in the rooms with lush tropical slightly intoxicate, but the kids and foreign guests with their mouths open just looked beautiful orchids, an infinite variety of fig-trees, vines, ferns, palms and huge monster. With delight children perceived the incredible fact that many first heard that a banana a height of about 3 meters - this is not a tree, and grass, the threads hanging from the branches of some trees - this aerial roots.Carefully treading the paths of the curious inhabitants of the "Children's Village" with difficulty restrained a desire to touch everything, smell and taste. For many restraining factor was the story of the guide on how the unique properties of poisonous plants (there were many among the collection of samples) used during the hunting tribes.

Visiting the greenhouse, we are happy to have walked on the northern part of the botanical garden - shady avenues, decorated with flower beds and rock gardens lawns, garden with fruit trees of unusual shape. We were even lucky enough to meet on deserted paths of a protein, it turns out - they live in a botanical garden a lot.Here you can also meet pheasants and other wild birds. 

Did not want to leave at all, but the fresh air - a piece insidious. Children work up an appetite, not batting an ingest sandwiches, laid by for a picnic and required supplements. For the addition had to go home - in the "Children's Village." 

We are a huge thank the administration of Donetsk Botanical Garden for a free tour and a sea of ​​positive emotions!
