The Canal Garden stretches 100 yards and features a water spectacle bordered by ever-changing seasonal gardens highlighted by a fountain at each end. The first water fountain is a short one, which at first glance is hidden behind bushes.

Then the two RV Gypsies walked beside the water trail with fake fish, surrounded by beautiful flowers, trees and bushes. However, they would have liked to have seen flowers on each of the two arches that extended over the pathway.

Another favorite section of the two RV Gypsies here at Daniel Stowe Botanical Gardens is the Tunnel Fountain Garden. Unlike most of the water fountains here, guests are encouraged to play beneath this fountain, and Karen Duquette especially loved getting wet here, since it was such a hot day. She made sure that she got as wet as possible.
