Beautiful pictures, as usual. :) Dawn, those trees look like they are wearing hairnets! So perfectly shaped. The Cliffs of Moher, Ireland

The gardens have been transformed into a winter wonderland - beautiful! Annie, the only thing better than chocolate would be gold covered chocolate - almost too pretty to eat! Igmd, I love how the birds tails can be seen poking out from under the snow covered shelter of the feeders. I'm sure the birds appreciate it! Looks inviting, Jim. Street food is the best and I think one of the best ways to experience local food as well. It hasn't been all prettied up for the tourists and is the real deal.

That's a female you can see some of the red seeds that come from the inside and fall to the ground and make baby sago palms. Extremely poisonous plant by the way will kill a dog with in minutes if they chew on it. I have a huge one I really want to get rid of to close to the driveway.

Glad you like it, Dawn. I thought it underwhelming beside the lovely wintery and vibrant autumn color sharing, and almost didn't add it to the thread.
