The Garden of Eden - is to find here!

The way into the Garden


Door to heaven...?


This must be the "Garden of Eden", a picture perfect paradise!


Deep green water and only peace in the air


A sanctuary for all kind of birds singing and the White Heron was looking out for food.


A sea of Azaleas everywhere your eyes are looking


A dream in pastel...


Am I in the tropics or what....?


Spanish Moss hanging from the trees, touching the water - it makes this place very romantic and heaven like. I enjoyed this afternoon very much!

This garden
is a wonderful treatment for your eyes and for your soul - it's Paradise!

Please visit THE MEPKIN ABBEY, Moncks Corner SC

    You summed it up so well.... this is indeed paradise to the senses. So lovely and romantic. I should kidnap my hubby from work and fly down. :o)

    Hi Twanyia,

    you should really "kidnap" _ I like this term - your husband and come down a weekend. It's just wonderful. You will not regret!

    Beautiful pictures, as always, Sue. Why is it that everytime I come to your blog, I get a lump in my throat and a tear in my eye? Do suppose Charleston is calling me back? :)
