I lived right by Kew Gardens many years ago when our son was a baby. Entrance was 1p for the baby in the pram and free for me! We went in almost every day and got to know every part of the place in every season. Lovely memories. leyle

Kew Gardens are so lovely but the entry fee is a bit over the top. Unfortuately, I won't make it there this time as I will leave the UK soon again for good.
