In this last northern visit, whenever Peter passed through Kuranda on the way to Cairns, he pass this beautiful tropical garden. It grew up a slope across a gully from the road's edge. Eventually he had to stop to take a picture of it. The shear scale of the growth and the variety of greens were so attractive. Tropical things still tug at Peter's heart even after nearly thirty years in Melbourne.

Tropical Garden

I understand the tugging at the heart strings, Dad. Melbourne is tugging on mine, but also, the cane fields tug on mine also, at times... and the Macedon Ranges area... and Gembrook! Our bodies and minds remember special places, hey...
