Sites Of Your World Today




Amazingly this is actually one tree ! A fig tree found in the centre of Cairns.



This is our breakfast coffee view - the sun shining and a breeze blowing but shortly to get hot, hot, hot !



What inspiration from this spectacular tree trunk - for my second children's book 'Spit is Poison' where the intrepid three children escape from an old TB hospital, formally Llanbedr Hall in Wales (where literally spit is poison as the notices scattered on the walls warn) to inadvertently finding themselves as stowaways on a convict ship to Australia!
This could be a perfect hiding place when they embark !




Fruits of the rainforest carved in wood by a craftsman from Babinda

             Plenty for our child characters to find in the forest to thrive on !





       Sugar Cane competition at Babinda Harvest Festival. This is the main crop of North Queensland.

Goodnight Little Angel !
