The Spanish pavillion was breathtaking at night. Lit up from inside, you could really see the basket-weave motif. Given this is a gardening forum, a special shout-out to New Zealand and their gorgeous roof garden.LittleMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00743282394251226513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-904017480503897256.post-90416209402448525202010-11-13T20:00:18.139-08:002010-11-13T20:00:18.139-08:00Amazing.
