A bit more colour from aus, this 16 acre park is the world's largest subtropical garden in a city centre (it says here!) :) :) :)

Wow, those photos just bring the feeling of warmth and sunshine and summer, brilliant. Just what we need at the moment, it's so cold! You are so lucky to be in the warm... Enjoy the rest of your trip.

Simon...do you think you could fit that first plant into your luggage for me? It is STUNNING!!
You are obviously having a good time!
Beautiful, beautiful.
Amazing photos Simon :)
Thanks folks, it sure has been an amazing experience :) but I've only got about another week to go :'( Strange to think I'll soon be back in the big coat and wooly hat after living in shorts for two months. Stranger still to think I'll be pruning apple trees when they're harvesting mangos just up the road here! EJ, I'll do what I can but somehow I don't think it's allowed ;D
