Ooooh butterfly wonderland! This was a really fun date for my boyfriend and I, and it was something new we had never experienced before. Butterflies sound so romantic and pretty, right?
WRONG. When they land on you, it is scary. Every time a butterfly got close to us we were both a little "flighty" (hahahahah). We were very worried about stepping on them, too, so we spent a lot of time staring at the ground. We were about half way through the misty butterfly garden when my boyfriend said "OH MY GOSH. DON'T. MOVE."
There was a butterfly on my neck. There was a butterfly on my neck! I whimpered while he took a picture, holding my neck in an awkward position to accommodate the little guy. My boyfriend laughed until it finally flew away. He kept making jokes about it UNTIL he looked down and discovered the same butterfly lounging on the side of his shorts. Then he didn't find it so funny. Ha!
Once we got our courage back and made peace with a few butterfly landings, we really enjoyed finding the different types of butterflies and hanging out in the garden. We got some nice butterfly pictures, too. So, yes, this is a great date place for me. Good memories.
