Orchid Fair - Santa Barbara Orchid Estates - Anyone going?

I spent about $40 and bought 5 orchids at the fair. Not too bad.

What a show!! I went to the fair grounds first and the orchids were gorgeous and numerous. I took many pictures as they are cheaper than buy all the orchids that I wanted.
I then went to the Santa Barbara estate and the whole place was amazing. I almost fell over with the overdose of orchids in such a short period of time.

Hey Mike! How many of the orchids came home with you? Or did you escape with only photos?

Ay yi yi. Yowza. Vanda heaven! Thanks for the pics to drool over.

Well I did have a few stow-aways,I purchased, 2 Neofinetia falcata's, 4 Vanda's, 2 Cymbidium's, 1 Epidendrum, and misc. supply's. I really blew my budget but who cares, it just means a little overtime.
Here are 2 pictures of the Neo's I purchased, the one with tag tag turned around is Neofinetia falcata 'Kinboshi'

Mike, What day did you go on? I was going to take pictures but I was too overwhelmed. One of those vendors had all fragrant orchids. They smelled great. Next time, I'll bring more money.

I went to the Nursery too. Did you get lost inside the green house maze. That place was enormous. I'm glad you took pictures because I didn't take enough.
