Tuesday, November 18, 2008. Am back home again and the Papaya trees have (literally) 100 or so papayas on them. The trees in the photo are two of about 15 trees in the back yard. Unfortunately, I think they taste like vomit. However, every day, our gardener scurries up the papaya trees (about 20 feet tall) to retrieve them and he is so proud of his accomplishments, therefore I act extremely grateful in accepting them.
