A gigantic picnic for 3000 people. a feast of french wines and pastries. Lush and mighty australian trees and flowers, lemon-scented gum trees, banya-banya prehistoric pines from Queensland. A cloister without the monks, a mansion with the australian flag flying at the top. Somewhere in one of the bedrooms, the lady who owned all that garden of Eden perished in the flames, a candle falling onto her bedsheets. She had just been left by her husband and children. Her ghost might roam somewhere under the arcades.
