This picture needs a bit of an explanation doesn't it? OK! A couple of towns over from where I live, there is an herb farm named Caprilands with extensive gardens and various animals. It's the kind of place that Nausicaa would love to visit as it would help her continue her research on plants and the forests. The lady who used to run the farm has written over 50 books on herbs, medicinal remedies, recipes etc...

Each saturday they invite the public to join them for lunch and tea. The dishes served varies with each season. In the wintertime they serve a very strong, bitter herbal punch. It looks harmless enough to the unsuspecting visitor... but this punch has a real kick to it!!

So... there's Nausicaa... and there's the punch... and well...

More on "Nausicaa's adventures in Caprilands" coming soon!
