This weekend I discovered the best time to go for a walk at the Botanic Gardens. It was 10℃ and pouring with rain. Within about five minutes my coat, gloves and scarf were drenched. After an hour my jeans were completely sodden and very heavy. In that hour of walking I saw only a handful of people. However, I saw and heard lots of birds. In the air, I could smell different plants in different parts of the Gardens. The best part was that most of the time I couldn't see anyone else so it was like being alone in this enormous, city-centre oasis.
