Botanical Garden- Kjerstin
On Friday we went to the Botanical Garden in Amsterdam, the Hortus Botanicus. It was such a cool and diverse garden. There were so many different plants from all over the world. It was very interesting to learn more about the different pharmaceutical plants from history and actually see them in person. It was also very interesting to see the greenhouses that were set up with different climates. I love to take pictures of plants and animals, so the whole idea of having all types of plants at my disposal was great! I really loved the time we spent at the botanical garden!

Our tour guide really took what otherwise would have been a relatively dry subject for me, and made it come to life. Very interesting history of both the garden, and the plants themselves. Also its amazing to think about how old some plants are. "Living Fossil" is a good name for some plants.
