Koi!

Edison loves the fact that his Grandpa and Zia own a pretty awesome garden centre... filled with so many fun things to look at. The thing he gets the most excited about seeing are the fish, of course! When I tell him we're going to go visit Grandpa he says "Papa! Fish!".

If you get the chance to go to the garden centre (Grow & Gather), you MUST check out the pond in the back. It's a beautiful pond, and its filled with some pretty amazing Koi fish. There are lot of fish in there, they're huge, and some of them are about 30 years old!

The Koi in the big pond love to be fed and it's Edison's favourite thing to do when we go there... he says "Fish! Food!". Last weekend we brought Nana along with us to show her the amazing koi. After we fed them we took a little wander around. They have some beautiful plants in there!

They are very friendly fish!

Inside the garden centre we said hello to all of the baby koi. 


Edison loved touching the water coming out of this fountain 




Of course I always have to take picture of the beautiful flowers. I also thought the little floating gardens were pretty cool!

It's always a fun time at Grow & Gather!
