Wednesday we headed into San Francisco to the Conservatory of Flowers. The last time Mom and Dad were in town, the Conservatory was still closed for repairs. This time it was open. We toured the conservatory and then spent another hour or two touring the pathways around the Conservatory. If you ever go there, be sure to walk around outside. It's very lovely.

We saw this outside the Conservatory. We have no idea what it is. The plant is about 3-4 feet tall.. with a big puff of purple flowers on the top. Very lovely.
