Amy's place was a little closer to the second. As we drove through the famous town of Noosa, Amy had me drive up a hill, then up to her home, now where I lived. We went through a pair of massive security gates into a virtual resort paradise. Palm trees, manicured lawns, tropical flowers. Then there was the house. It was a modern-looking structure, with lots of pillars and loping angles, giving it a luxurious but not arrogant look.
