Flashing back in their mind the wealth of greenery, private gardens, antique ponds, classy fountains and playgrounds in the sanctuary of their hearts, the three siblings go back in time, stroll in the Belcher’s Gardens, and meet again their fun and bizarre neighbours who dare to steal bananas from the ancestor shrine, take afternoon naps underneath people’s car bonnets, hang upside down the crystal ceiling lights, and lay eggs in grandpa’s studio!
