Cacti collection in a Venetian window box

Place: Venice, Italy.
Date: Sunday, October 29, 2006.
Camera: Sony Cybershot DSC-W1.

I'm always fascinated by the plants that people choose to grow in their window boxes, but this is the first time I've ever seen a collection of cacti.  At first I wondered if I had somehow been miraculously transported to Mexico or somewhere similiar! It seemed kind of ironic to see these kinds of desert plants when I was exploring such a damp, water-abundant city. But they look great, don't they?

It does look like you've travelled over to South America somewhere! Have you? *grin*
