This commendation
plaque was awarded to Pat C and myself in the year
2000 by the KESAB Tidy Towns program. It
was in recognition and appreciation of our efforts
in creating the beautiful garden areas around our home.
This conservatory
has a tropical feel and serves to remind Pat C and myself
of the many years we have spent in the tropical areas of
Australia, Asia and the South Pacific.
Please enjoy a relaxing walk through
our lovely gardens.
A cooler
area filled with ferns and water loving plants. There is
also a small fish pond to add to the peaceful atmosphere.
Another view of the cooler fern
house and fish pond area which is located adjacent to the
Lizard house.
This area can be used in any
weather conditions and boasts a rotary spit, barbecue and
open gas cooking facilities.
This recently added feature
to the Tuscany wall area includes a trickling fountain which
adds to the relaxing atmosphere.
The rather scary lions head
which is another feature of the Tuscany wall located in the
sun filled open garden area.
At
the other end of our open sun filled area we have a feature
in the form of a mermaid fountain. The trickle of water is
very relaxing.
Under the giant maiden hair
fern in the background is nestled a small pool which is home
to our pet axolotl (Mexican walking fish).
Adjacent
to the conservatory and fern house area we have a large entertainment
room. It is in here that I have entertained at many functions
for my friends and have at times, raised money for charity.
Our entertainment area
is located alongside the barbecue and rotary spit. The décor
is made up from various artifacts, paintings and carvings
that Pat C and I have accumulated over many years of travelling
throughout Australia, New Zealand, Asia, India and the Pacific
Islands of Fiji, Samoa and the Kingdom of Tonga.
These are our two pet
bearded dragon lizards who we have affectionately named
Liz and Zard.
These are our two pet axolotl
who we have affectionately named Axel and Lottle.
