Heavy rain caused an area
of bush on Magnetic Island , known as " the Pope’s Land",
because it belongs to
the Catholic Church , to
flood .The surfeit of holy water
cut off
the path to righteousness
and poured into a
nearby drain , expected to
flow for a considerable time - less than 40
days, according to hydrologists . Noah’s Ark has not yet been sighted , but at the foot of the gumtree in the middle of the photo
is a Ferry
real estate sign , on its back for
months , now
underwater , announcing the land is available for lease. Perhaps for the growing
of bullrushes ?
