At Open bay, the company has an area in which special guests plant a tree in memory of their visit. Nick planted his tree on his first visit a year ago. I was quite ‘tickled’ when told that I would be also planting a tree. We went out on the Friday afternoon in pouring rain!

First we checked out Nick’s tree and he was amazed how much it had grown in just one year (must be all that rain!).
Then it was time for me to plant my tree. Very muddy and sloppy – but enough rain to wash the hands!!

The family who lives at the site and looks after the memorial garden all came out in the rain to greet us. They were very friendly and loved having photos taken

Check out the tupela (twins) in their matching laplaps!
