Today we chose to explore Kings Park and the Botanical Gardens. We had a great time, the gardens were fantastic, the views over the city and the Swann River were beautiful and we walked over 6 kms. We spent about 4 hours there before Mark was getting a little tired. He's still not feeling 100%. There will be lots of flowery photos so feel free to scroll on.
We drove past Optus stadium and the Matagarup Bridge across the Swann River.
