It was a gorgeous sunny day at Denver Botanic. Almost too sunny -- I was glad we had the first hour tickets and were able to walk through before it got too warm.
Spring is arriving very late this year. Usually the peak for the tulips and irises would have been mid April. It'll be mid May it looks like for 2021. So we'll consider this the "before" set for comparison later.
early morning is also prime shadow time
Another bonus being some of the first inside -- you can appreciate the geometry of the place without people messing up the lines!
these ducks were not early risers.
even the gift shop is beautiful!
Lunch at the Cherry Cricket (Impossible Burger!)
and one final, very squinty selfie until next time
