Maybe that's the same one - they did their tour with Bully, too. I've heard of the oldest cactus on the island, which is HUGE! Maybe it's one in the same?

Yes the cactus is HUGE and I was told it is the oldest on the island. It is on someones property, but we were welcomed by the owners to take pics!

Here is the pic that Bully took for us!

Wow, that really is huge. Wonder if that is also considered the Hugging Tree! Thanks for sharing the pic!

I changed my profile picture. It is of us after our civil ceremony. This picture was taken with my camera but Diane Keizer was with us taking pictures as well. There are two next to each other in front of the Amsterdamn Manor and they are beautiful! Not sure I could hug the cactus tree.....we saw some amazing ones yesterday while driving around.
