The flower festival at long last...

These pictures are from the "Royal Flora" flower festival going on in Chiang Mai right now. The festival is truly extravagant. There are flowers from around the world, large gardens of Thai flowers and vegetables, elaborate displays, bright colors and a gigantic orchid display - itself worth the visit. Unfortunately, I can only put 5 pictures up at a time, but I'll try to give you a taste of some of what I saw. It's awesome!
