There was a night celebration also. Which included this band there were 4 wooden xylophones and various native instruments. There are thirty members in the band.


The blooms ranged from the size of a dime to a saucer. Some of the plants were 6 feet tall.


We have a lot of orchids in the states but I don't recall as large a variety as I saw here.


Those are all orchids. The display was about
10 feet wide and 6 feet high.


I can't pronounce nor spell any of the names of these orchids. But I enjoyed them anyway, I don't think they'll be offended if I don't know their names.


There was an orchid competition going on and there was 100's of orchids on display.


I believe these were called bearded
palms for obvious reason.
