Orchids for Sale

On Easter we took a Ferry ride into Hong Kong to the area that is called Central, the main downtown central business district. We were going to find one of the four IKEA stores in HK to pick up some items we needed for home. We took the earliest ferry in and then the MTR subway out to an area called Causeway Bay. We had some time to waste before the store opened so we decided to go to Victoria Park within a block of our destination and to our surprise they were having the annual HK Flower Show. We bought a ticket and were in as it just opened for the day. No crowds yet! It was absolutely wonderful. Many of the displays had Olympics themes. The orchids are fabulous. We had to have one so we bought one put it in our backpack and were able to get it through customs and home without breaking it. Yahoo!
