Japanese Gardens

---

It was a long weekend, had just gotten a new camera, so what better reason to drive out to the Japanese Gardens in Cowra. It was only a 2 hour drive from home, so off me and Ruby headed at 8am. Previously I had never heard of these gardens and thought there was nothing in Cowra, turns out that the gardens are the largest Japanese Gardens in the Southern Hemisphere.
Although the start of the day was a bit gloomy and was raining slightly, by the time we got there the rain was just stopping and it turned out to be quite a nice day. Spent a few hours slowly walking around the Gardens, taking photos here and there, testing out some of the different functions of the camera. It was very nice and peaceful there. There was even a small wedding happening in near one of the lakes as we were walking around.
After a few hours there we heading back into town to get some lunch. Went to a nice little cafe called La Vito or something along those lines. Looked small from the front but was very spacious inside and just kept going back. And even though they did forget to make our food at first, when it arrived it was delicious. And they only charged us half price because of the wait.
So that was the day at the Gardens in Cowra. After lunch headed back to home.
