At least the plants seem to be. <BR/>Photo 10 makes me think of a pharaoh's tomb. What an impressive hill, and such a wonderful view with the gardens leading toward it! <BR/>I love seeing all the tropical plants. Those fan shaped palms are so pretty and what a color!<BR/>Amazing flora Alice.

It intrigued me..... in a 'Picnic at Hanging Rock' sort of way. Christopher would'nt let me get close in case I mysteriously disappeared lol. There is a fort or castle I think.... is that right? I remember some of it sticking out the side of the mountain. Those gardens are gorgeous Alice.... I bet you spent hours and hours walking around and enjoying it's beauty.
