It’s cold(-ish) and wet outside, courtesy of Cyclone Ita. Car air con is usually set to 24C, and the car promptly turned on the heater. Meanwhile, rain did not dissuade us from going to the Botanical Gardens, which, due to the weather, we had pretty much to ourselves.

First stop, the rain forest.

Flora and Fauna were equally wet.

Two more long-exposure shots. Despite the rain, there was no wind at all, making for dramatic images.

My umbrella, appropriately, has a rainforest motif. The frogs loved the weather.
