After visiting the historic downtown area of Wilmington for a couple of days, we headed out about 20 minutes to Airlie Gardens.
π· This used to be a large estate in the Gilded Age, now a busy private botanical garden.
π³ Soon after entering, I see the massive Airlie Oak. Tried to capture its immense size and fullness by showing people near it, dwarfed.
There were more surprises to come.

View from The Riverwalk at sunset.
The Riverwalk at night, the perfect location for a romantic walk. with plenty of places to sit quietly or to slip into a more lively spot.
After dinner, it was time for a stroll on the extensive Riverwalk along the Cape Fear River. There is a long segment of boardwalk that eventually attaches to Water Street and beyond, with restaurants, bars, and shops along its entirety.
On this fence around an area to be upgraded are buoys decorated by schoolchildren.
First dinner in Wilmington at Elijah's. Took a chance and tried their Firecracker Oysters - baked with smokey roasted poblano, *pimento cheese*, and a pickled red onion. It works! With a side of collard greens, natch. Finally, the best key lime pie I ever had. Good start to our trip. Afterwards, a romantic sunset turn on the famous Wilmington Riverwalk.
I'm travelling again! Now in Wilmington, NC with Beloved on our anniversary trip.
Also will be checking out local history, some of it pretty dark.
Haven't forgotten that I have been dispatched by @feritae to investigate invasive blue land crabs.
Finally, I will continue my search for the rare carnivorous plant that only grows around here.
