Our photo of the day comes from Anja Weyers in Sandy Bay and shows just some of our beautiful island flora, called frangipani or plumeria. I have gotten some feedback to see more flora and fauna in photos of the day and fewer sunrises and sunsets. What do you think? Let me know your thoughts. Today isContinue reading “March 25, 2024”
