    Ron, you had an amazing trip! Thanks for sharing! I love the vandas (all of them, not only the white one...). What am I talking about. I love them all, but I wouldn't smell the tree...LOL How long was your vacation? And one more question- where did you put your 16 orchids to take home? How you carry them?

    Wow, so cool to look at all those beautiful pics!
    I like the pic of the "messy" orchid display outside the restaurant.
    I feel like I got a slice of travel this morning without living Brooklyn, thanks!
    Some beautiful orchids for us to drool over ...
    (nice to see your pretty girlfriend and her great smile)

    thanks a lot!

    vacation was only 11 days, but enough to get around and the feel of it, of course more time would have been better, maybe 6 months on sugar beach?lol
    i put my babies in plastik pots or wrapped em around with newspaper and in 3 plastic bags, believe me it wasnt easy on the bus rides.

    cheers,
