ABC Wednesday, N for Nature's PowerHouse in Cooktown

Karien meets often friends and relatives for coffee in

the Nature's PowerHouse, which is situated in the Botanic Gardens of Cooktown.




Every time I visited Cooktown in Queensland, Australia, I learned something new. There is a terrace outside the Nature's  PowerHouse where you can have coffee or a meal and at the same time enjoy the vegetation of the Botanic Garden. My daughter often comes here  to work on her computer or just relax. She often meets friends and other people she knows. I always join her when I happen to be in Cooktown.

Dat ziet er allemaal heel aanlokkelijk uit WIl... misschien loop ik er ooit zelf met mijn camera in een poging om ook zulke mooie foto's te maken zodat ik langdurig na kan genieten

Fijne dag, lieve groet!

What a beautiful place and how wonderful to be able to, as your daughter does,
take one's computer, an do some work. it's certainly the sort of place I would
like to sit and write or even sketch some of the beautiful plants and shrubs etc.
Best wishes dear Wil,
Di.

This looks like such a perfect place to eat a meal or just sit and enjoy the beautiful surroundings.
If I came to work there I think I wouldn't get anything done...much to tranquil and lovely.

Wonderful place to visit Wil, - it reminds me of the Butchart Gardens on Vancouver Island, and perhaps some day you will be able to visit there!

Erg mooie foto's :)
Wij hebben geen tuin of balkon, helaas. Maar nu zijn we bezig met een volkstuin, met huisje. Dan kan ik lekker naar buiten en lekker barbecueën :-D

Fijne dag vandaag
