Here are some pics taken at the Eden project.Hope you like them, we got so hot in the tropical dome,
sweat was running down my face when I left. Looks of alarm from people entering I can tell you lol.
Handy tip ( take lots of water & dress lightly).There is a lovely waterfall halfway round with a welcoming cold breeze though. Also there is place selling really cold water when you get out, I bet they make a fortune!!On a positive note it seemed to seep into my bones & do my Arthritis good for days.My OH said we must get a sauna installed when we move house......result :O)

Wow Viv! I've just been looking at your holiday pics and it looks absolutely gorgeous! Sounds like you had a great time and I love the photo of your son and his girlfriend! These Eden Project pics are fab too - can't believe I've never been there! Vx
Lovely pics Viv but the dome seems as if it's not suitable for ladies of a certain age:)

Beautiful photographs Viv and those on your previous post :o)

That Bee really gave me a fright the first time I saw it, somehow it had been hidden from view until we were really close, like you say it is massive. The last time we went to the Eden Project it was Christmas / New Year and we went on the evening to see it the candle procession. Fabulous time to go, nice and warm inside as well!
