I use the term loosely here. I don’t really have a garden. We live in an apartment in Brisbane and all we have is a small garden bed filled with a Monstera and some ferns and several pots. Bugs have eaten all my basil, my parsley is just about finished, so it is looking a bit sad – except for this gorgeous thing which popped up overnight.
I leave today for Italy. I am flying via Dubai where I am planning some wadi bashing. Hopefully there will be photos. I then have a brief stop in gorgeous Milan, where spring should be in the shop windows, while I freeze looking at them.
I am excited about being in Bagni di Lucca again for a few months. I am hoping for at least one snowfall before spring comes and I am anticipating the arrival of the daffodils, bluebells, magnolias, wisteria etc, etc (some of those on my Italian balcony). I plan to visit some of my favourite places and discover a few new ones – there will be regular reports. I hope you come along for the ride.
