Happy Place, Happy Space
Last week, when I visited this display outside the Orchid Garden, I noticed train tracks but not a train. I wondered if they kept the train overnight elsewhere for safe-keeping.


I checked every time I ran past, but still no train.


A couple of days ago, a train magically appeared. I wonder if it will still be there next week.

What a lovely display! As a child, Markus loved these trains. And thank you for spreading the word about sea turtle conversation! Awareness is critical. After all, we can only love what we know, and more people learning about the sea turtles hopefully inspires them to take action. Thank you for your support. Much appreciated!
