We are staying with Jackie in her lovely house, in a very smart gated community, on the Gold Coast, Queensland.
.
There are landscaped common gardens, a tennis court and a swimming pool. We feel as if we are staying in a resort. And I guess we are really. It is a stunning development.
The front garden of Jackie's house, with its tropical plants and trees providing shade and interest.
Jackie has an impressive number of bromeliads growing in her garden. Such beautiful colours, patterns and shapes. Bromeliads grow easily here, in the warm and humid climate.
Jackie's comfortable patio, with a bench to stretch out on, shady umbrella and bright flowers.

Jackie has a cat called Frankie. A friendly cat with heaps of personality.
Frankie took quite a liking to my sunhat with the flowers embroidered, by Kylie, on it.

Frankie loves sleeping in drawers.

It is great to be here, not only to relax in a resort like atmosphere, but also to catch up with Jackie. Lots of talking of course, plus time for delicious coffee and cake, at the local cafes.
