*waves tiredly at the newsgroup* England was wonderful! No pictures of
orchids except one bletilla. Kew gardens was a real disapointment in terms
of orchids. only about 24 on display and nothing we don't all have in our
collections anyway..floofly catts, yellow oncids, some hybrid phals and a
few Paphs.

Welcome home, world traveler! Hope the accomodations in GB were better than
what you had in Homestead (G).

*giggles hysterically at Diana* only MARGINALLY!!! Like homestead..no hot
water...continental breakfast was a joke, (better than zingers though) and
these towels (when we got them) could also double as sandpaper! But since
we didn't spend much time in the room......who cares...rest of trip was
fantastic!

How annoying!
I was i Kew -96, and the orchids were as badly represented then. They had
quite a good selection of paphs, at least for the paph newbie I was then.
Don't know how satisfied I'd be today...
I loved the giant ferns, though!

I was thinking about going there to stack up on some books, but it sounds
like I should wait til they have some sort of orchid exhibition.
