Allan Gardens and Center Island

27/8/2013

This series of interconnected greenhouses were visited as part of an 18th birthday gift for a friend. I'd never been before, and was pleased that it turned out to be a fantastic place, with few visitors (because it was Monday morning) and a touch-all-you-want vibe.
We eventually left the tropic section and came to the desert section. The transition from tropic heat to desert heat could be clearly felt. The air was dry and the plants bristled beautifully, if dangerously.
Then we took a closer look at the gardens outside the greenhouse, which were just as beautiful, if a little more wild.
Having explored to our hearts content, we then trekked through the heat to the Harbourfront, were we took a ferry to Centre Island (which contains more than an amusement park, namely: a beach with actual sand). Photo opportunities appeared the moment we stepped on the ferry.
When we landed on the islands, we headed straight for the sand, stopping occasionally to peer at one thing or another. We lazed, watched gulls watch us for food, and then explored the Centre Island Farm (a mini-zoo, really).
Our day ended with the moon blazing orange as the sun set.
