The Japanese Memorial Gardens at Cowra, in central New South Wales, are always beautifully maintained and refreshing and interesting in all seasons.

(Unfortunately, Hello is only partially posting some photos again so I've had to delete several.)

Alice, I had the same problem with several photos the last time I posted. I messed around for quite a while before I got a completed post with all the photos whole. Very frustrating!
Those gardens are so beautifully serene. The first thing Ross and I noticed was how green everything is. Did you go there recently?Thanks for sharing your lovely photos!

Alice...the gardens are so beautiful. I'm really partial to your second picture. I think it is so pretty.

I haven't posted lately so I don't know about blogger picture problems, although that has happened to me in the past.

Just think Alice...I might have stood in that same spot in your Grand Canyon picture...it looks very familiar...or at least walked very nearby to it.

So it's my first Green Thumb Sunday today. How nice to see other participants as well!

Many greetings from Germany!

Even though I've just seen them in the flesh (so as to speak) its always a delight to see a Japanese garden. Many thanks!

Dear Alice, how wonderful to see, on my first visit to your blog in AGES, these photos of the Japanese Garden in Cowra. What a great day you had for your visit there.

l love Japanese gardens- ponds, streams, hills, stones, trees, flowers, bridges and paths all used to create a miniature reproduction of their natural scenery. Wonderful to relax in- lovely photos. xx

I love the pictures you've added Alice. The sky in your pictures looks very blue. We've had so much damp, wet weather that I almost forgot what a beautiful blue sky looked like.
