The girls and I have visited the gardens many times but Ray had not had a chance to see them. He really wanted to see a Wollemi Pine after reading so much about them in the news.

That is amazing! I've never heard of it before. Do they only grow in Australia or are they trying to cultivate them around the world as well? I hope you are still having fun. I want to hear what you are doing from day to day. Are the girls enjoying it or are they ready to come home? Savannah doesn't make it a day without talking about Tessa and how she misses her! :o)
Ray wants to get some pines to plant on the farm. I think there is a mail order source for them. They give them away here but I doubt we can bring them on the plane. I'm trying to find things that are special to Australia that we can bring home with us. Emma is having the hardest time with being here. She misses her friends and horses. Did Savannah get the postcard?
Yes! She LOVED getting it, but we don't have your address to send something back. Can you email it to me?
Thanks for the new posting, Denise. That tree really is remarkable.
Tell Emma to live in THIS moment. Her friends and her horses will be here waiting for her.
Please post pictures of the apartment, the building and the street so we can 'imagine better' as Isabella said.
