Another new post? Can't be...
I just wanted to write quickly about a flower show I went to today. There were tons of exotic flowers beautifully displayed surrounded by water fountains shooting in crazy formations while interludes like Flight of the Bumblebee and andantes from Swan Lake played in the background...I felt a bit like I was Alice in Wonderland. Anyway, Florissimo is a flower festival that takes place once every 5 years in Dijon. The host brother of one of the girls on my trip helped put the show together so we all went as a group today to show our support. The show was wild, to say the least. Here are a few photos:

The last photo is of something I find particularly impressive. Each one of those little flowers has its own little receptacle of water to keep the flower fresh. So cool! Wish you all could have seen it. Such a cool exhibition!

I attended a Chelsea Flower Show in June of 1985--probably the only one I'll ever go to. This one looks like more fun, actually! I'm so glad you happened to be in Dijon during the fifth year!---Mom
