Where do you go on a rainy day? The Conservatory at Longwood Gardens!

Longwood Gardens in Kennett Square, Pennsylvania is one of our favorite places to visit at any time of the year. The Conservatory is a special place to be on a cold or rainy day. The current exhibit is Orchid Extravaganza and you will be surrounded by thousands of beautiful flowers and plants. Expect to spend hours capturing the colors with your camera. Take a look at their website for the scheduled activities and exhibits. www.longwoodgardens.org It is well worth making the trip!

If you have photographs from your favorite places, please share them in the comments for this post.
