Today I got to spend the day with one of my dearest friends, Nicky. We don’t get to see each other as much as I would like, but when we do get together we go all out. And today we opted to visit the Subtropical Gardens in Abbotsbury.

It has been many, many years since I last visited the gardens, and I never went the whole way around them then, so today was a real treat. The best plants had to be the hydrangeas – the colours were absolutely gorgeous.
After over 2hrs exploring and catching up, we had a delicious lunch in the restaurant, followed by a good browse in the gift shop! We then drove to the Dansel Gallery, in the village – this is a place that I was always taken as a child whenever we visited Abbotsbury (my Dad was born there).

It’s been such a fantastic day, and I really great way to start my week off! Who could ask for more than a day spent with a really special friend ♥ Tomorrow, Dave and I are embarking on a camping adventure, so I’ll see you all later in the week!
