Orange is the Colour

So, here it is. The new colour for the wall. It's slightly more 'orange' than terracotta but we learning to live with it. It stands out and certainly makes our house stand out when you approach it. Haven't heard the comments from the neighbours yet but there are sure to be some comments.

The prickly nasty tree that I got rid of has been replaced with the pink flowering bougainvillea. Bit of a clash with the orange.

This new burst of colour in the garden has changed the whole appearance but there's still a lot to do.

Ideally it would be nice to have some water in the garden. Big problem with water in this part of the world is mozzies. They love a bit of stagnant water. Yeah, we know, fish are the answer. Non of us want fish or the responsibility of keeping fish (and I'm a veggie hippy who thinks fish are best in the river or sea). So, no water for the moment.

There's a new article on the website [http://www.gretra.com] and I've posted a pic from a beach here for some caption suggestions. Go check it out.
