The National Botanic Garden of Ireland

Today I woke up before everyone else so I decided to take a 20 minute walk to check out the Botanic Gardens. It was a typical Irish day...quite cloudy and kind of cold, but overall pretty pleasant. When I arrived at the gardens I was shocked. I assumed that I would see a bunch of shrubs and trees on perfectly landscaped grass but instead the garden was brightly colored with wild flowers and had tranquil streams running all throughout the property.
