We finally made it over to the Queen Elizabeth 2 Botanic Park in Cayman a few weeks ago. The park was opened in 2003, during the island's 500th Anniversary, and the Queen herself actually came to Cayman!
My mother loves flowers and would always take us around this time of year to the Wichita Lawn and Garden Show at Expo Hall. Walking around this park's flower garden I felt like I was back at the Garden Show, looking at all the exotic plants. It is crazy to see how large some of these "house plants" can get!
The other draw to the park is their collection of blue iguanas. They look bluer as juveniles and more grey as adults. Below, in the center of the picture, is a blue iguana. They are super endangered and only found in the Cayman Islands.
I'll take you to the park the next time you come Mom. Sorry we didn't go last year!
