DAY 6: Orchid Hunting!

My mom, true to her passion, discovered before leaving that there would be orchids in the region. So through a few emails she meet Madame Glaudon, a fellow french orchidist. After some beautiful, off the beaten path, winding road, we showed up to this little area where Madame Glaudon was waiting to take us "hunting for les orchidees sauvages!"

Enjoy the photos!


My mom wrote an article for her orchid society (Newport Harbor Orchid Society: NHOS (No, this is not a plug!). But the article describes the day exactly!
