Oklahoma City- Botanical Gardens- CLOSED :(

C3 headed to Oklahoma City for a day trip this Labor Day weekend. The weather was perfect for outdoor activities. We decided to spend the day at the Botanical Gardens and the Oklahoma City Zoo.  I researched the Botanical Gardens and saw that it had a childerns outdoor activity area. Colton was looking forward to playing on the playground after being cooped up in a car for the 2 hour drive.
The playground was closed :( Colton was pretty bummed. We decided to walk the grounds to see what else there was to do. The bridge behind us in the picture above is the indoor section of the Botanical Gardens. That was also closed and under consturction. Even if it was open, i'm not sure how interested Colton would have been when he had high hopes for a playground!

We walked the ground for about 10 more minutes.

The Botanical Gardens were nice. Walking distance from Oklahoma City Brick Town. We will have to go back once the gardens are open and in full bloom. We will also need to explore Brick Town. I hear there are many resturants, Hotels, and the baseball stadium withing walking distance.

We decided to leave the Botanical Gardens and head to the Zoo ( about a 10 minute car ride) in hopes of some better outdoor activites for C3!
