The Royal Botanic Gardens are located just next to the Shrine, so again very close to my flat. The first time I went to the botanic gardens was for Christmas, we had a lovely summer picnic! The botanic gardens are free to enter so it's a great place to go on a sunny day and spend the day in the park.The photo to the left is my favourite place in the botanic gardens, just just on top of a hill overlooking a pond and the rest of the gardens.
For Christmas I received some Moonlight Cinema tickets from my boyfriends stepsister. The Moonlight cinema is an open air cinema in the botanic gardens. The screen is actually set up on the hill opposite of where I'm sitting, on the other side of the pond. We went to see Delivery Man, which started just after sunset. If you look closely to the photo on the right you can see a building sticking out just above the middle of the screen. That's the Eureka building in central Melbourne, the tallest building in the southern hemisphere. During the film there were a whole bunch of bats screeching over our heads. It was kind of creepy but an amazing sight!
