The Navidad tree



Whoa! I was blown away when I saw this poinsettia tree! Did you have any idea that your Christmas plant could become a tree? And beautiful at that! As Andrew said, I lost about 30 pictures because I was dumb and deleted them off the camara before making sure they were on our memory stick, so hard lesson learned. But here is another photo of the park visits we´ve begun with kiddos. Can you believe these slides...awesomely built into the hillside. Some of the toys in these parks would never pass safety inspection in the states...I went on a slide the other day that was like 25 feet up and I shot off the end of it running so as not to wipe out...can you imagine sending your 4 year old down?

Beautiful poinsetta! They grow like that in Florida but more the size of a bush. That looks to be an orange or lemon tree beside/behind it. I see fruit!
Wish we had all that beautiful sun and warmth!
love, mom
