I watched the weather forecast all week long! As Sunday approached I got more and more excited! The forecast was for sunny skies and a temperature of 37 F. I couldn't wait to get outside and walk around the botanical gardens! Well, today is Sunday and I am here to tell you that the weather forecasters lied! See the pictures below to see what the weather was REALLY like! In the end, it was a great walk through the gardens, but not the weather I was expecting!


When we left the house, the sun was shining. The closer we go to the gardens, the less sunshine we saw and the more the snow fell!





This is one of my favorite sites in Ukraine. I could never find a way to get close photos. Today I found it!






There are bird feeders all over the gardens. We were able to get close to these birds as they had lunch!

I will return to these same spots in three months when the lilacs have bloomed and the sun is shining brightly. No matter what the weather, the botanical gardens are peaceful and beautiful.
