Faye's friend took these pics but they were taken between rain showers .I think its good to show the garden in the dry season and then take a picture of the same area when the monsoon greens things up some.

That's a great idea, Gwen, before and after shots. The rain forest is just like a wall around your place, isn't it? What size are the house blocks?

You have a beautiful, peaceful looking garden, Gwen. It is wonderful...it tends to make me think of the word 'majestic'... I would love to visit it in reality.
