  5. A she eh!! :)

    The colour is just amazing - I think of the Buddha with this safron and orange tones. I look after a garden for one of my jobs - I took my camera with me the last time but have much more yet to capture over time!!

  10. I like this garden as it has all these little figures around it giving that enchanted feel to it. As I work away I find these treasures hidden under weeds or the prolific growth of the garden - nice little job to have!!

  24. Goodness me! I used to have them in a large tank and loved sitting and just watching them. They cost a fortune now so I have got two fancy goldfish. They cost me $58.00 each.My son gave me the tank for Christmas and was supposed to get the fish when I had finished setting it up. HA!
