Boxes all over the place

Finally it has arrived



Well, its finally here !

Twins




These two little lizards (not gecko's) have a home under our front patio - here they are sunning themselves. Not sure what how big 'mother' is or how many children there are in the family. We definitely now know about the 'terrible twins'.

China's National Day






Celebrated with concert outside the opera house. We waited for ages to try and get the dragons in action, but gave up after 30 minutes. Still very well attended as you can see.

Fish and Eels





Koi fish in the ponds are enormous, this picture does not show just how huge they are. Of course there are eels in the ponds as well.

Out and About in the Botanical Gardens







Some pics in and around the gardens

Train



this train takes people on a tour of the gardens, great for those who cannot walk as some parts are quite steep.
