  2. ok!! Im off to Olinda tomorrow...never realised how many gorgeous birch trees were up there. They are one of my favourite trees me thinks!
    I remember riding a little steam train through hundreds of them in the Lakes District...it was heaven!

  3. Erin - you're such a hippy, LOL ;) Yes, they are our brothers and sisters, aren't they. I thought of you when I was there because there was a sign for a stand of sequoia treess. There's tons of them around your parts, if my remembrance of The Shack is anything to go by :) Next time I am there I am going to go visit them :)

    CB - there's just a stand of them, or a couple of different varieties, I think. It's definitely worth a visit, but the birch trees you need to go past the first big carpark and take a first left.

    That sounds like a lufferly steam train ride. They are amazing trees, aren't they. So white ...

  4. I have been in the hippy groove lately. Listening to Janis, watching specials on tv about woodstock and the summer of love...it's a phase.
