Orchid Show

1/30/16

Move over cherry blossoms we have ORCHIDS in town!

The Orchid Show an award winning annual festival in Okinawa and longest running orchid festival that is celebrating its 30^th year. Preston wasn’t thrilled about going to see even more flowers, but was a trooper. Luckily the orchid festival takes place at the tropical dream center (apart of the huge Expo Park where the aquarium is also located) So we were really getting to see two places at once! There were 30,000 orchids on display.

 I pledge allegiance to the orchid... lol Preston looks thrilled

 An orchid tunnel, I wanted to stay here forever
