Went to the eden project today ;D

Was lovely, maybe a bit expensive at £17 for a student...

But i got some gorgeous pictures and saw some amazing plants.

I was wondering if anyone else had been and if so what they thought about it.

If not, would you like to go ?

I'm quite happy, last time i went i was too young to care about plants ! Now i've enjoyed it and been quite amazed by the many varieties i'd never seen before.

twiams look out for the late deal, anyone with a Devon or Cornwall postcode can get in very cheaply and then all year for free www.edenproject.com/visit-us/tickets-and-tours/locals-annual-pass
it's well worth it if you are planning on going again

I've been to Eden a couple of times about 5/6 years or so ago & enjoyed it but I do agree with you twiams that it is a bit expensive. It's changed a bit since the last time I went so I'll probably go again sometime in the future, we didn't get to Heligan so I'd like to visit there as well if we're ever on holiday down that way.
