Even an overcast day couldn‘t make the Singapore Botanic Gardens any less spectacular!! ♥️♥️♥️ Fair Warning lovely Littens: brace for a *slew* of gardening books as soon as our feet hit the ground as our container *should* be arriving in port TODAY after a weird jaunt through Karachi (India to Singapore via Pakistan... sure...🤔). Cross *everything* nothing‘s broken, damaged or stolen and watch this space, the limbo is almost over!!! 😊😊😊

CarolynM Hope it all arrives in good nick soon. Is the pagoda still in the gardens? 6y
Lindy Bring on the gardening books posts! And more botanic garden photos. I loved that place so much that I went back a second time when I visited Singapore in 2002. 6y
