one of Tintagel's sculptures, by Bruce Armstrong, called How was the night?
 As part of Bowral's Tulip Time festival, many private gardens are open to the public. Though Tulip Time doesn't start until September 18, on Saturday we were able to see the garden of Tintagel, which has the largest private sculpture collection in N.S.W.

We also made a brief visit to Corbett Gardens the next day - luckily for us some of the tulips were already out, as you can see in these photos.
