Kew Gardens at night
It's that time of year again and Kew Gardens are having their late evening openings. For any of you out there who havn't seen Kew in the dark they will be open late from 16-19 December (4.15 to 9pm free entry). It is a magical experience with many trees floodlit from below, and the weeping willow in front of the Palm house dripping with fairy lights reflected in the lake. This year they also have an ice rink next to the Temperate House. I went late on Saturday (not to skate!)and watched many adults & children enjoying themselves. There is a large cafe area too where you can sit & watch the skaters. It looks fantastic all lit up. (You can book hour long sessions see website www.kew.org)It would look even lovelier if we had the odd flurry of snow!
