You do realize that Mar-a-Lago was actually built by Marjorie Merriweather Post, the daughter of cereal magnate C. W. Post. She had willed it to the US government because she is the one who had envisioned it as a "winter White House". The government turned down the property because it would have cost $1 million annually just to maintain it. Donald Trump bought it and turned it into a resort. He does have private quarters on property, but it has been open to the public for years.
Oh Didge, I am googling Lodge, where the Australian PM lives, very interesting mansion indeed!

On Google Maps go to the Breakers Hotel in Palm Beach, Florida. Look south to the nearest bridge. Mar a Lago is right there in the northwest corner. Why? Do you have an invitation?
