Everyone has driven past it a thousand times, but have you ever gone up Floral Dr. to take a closer look at the Rockway Gardens? The gardens are just coming into peak season and are looking wonderful this year. Some nice water features, both in the Gardens and over in the Rockery. Lots of spots to sit for a bit and plenty of places to snap a photo or use as a background for a portrait photo. The Horticultural Society hosts several music nights over the summer - the next one features a swing jazz band on Sunday, August 16th at 1930hrs. Floral Dr is two-way, but to leave, I recommend going down to the south end of the gardens and circling right onto Rockway Dr. - it's a nice old residential street that passes the Rockway golf course clubhouse before re-joining Floral Dr.
