We spent an entire day at the Botanical Garden.

It was springtime, the Airzona desert was heated to the low 90's and it was a great introduction to the arid fauna and flora

Stella was a member of the New York Botanical Garden so we got a discount in Phoenix.  Orestus chose to stay in the car in the parking lot rather than take the walking tour of the 140 acre wonder

Our favorite exhibit was the walking in Pavilion showing the butterflies common in the Arizona Desert
