Gent Flower Expo

I went to the flower expo yesterday, apparently this flower expo happens every 5 years only, and it was stunning! Anyway, the weather was not good, grey, and cold, so it was a perfect time to visit an expo ;-).

It covered more than 2km, and we had to queue for an hour to really get in because of the large amount of people that were there. Since it was crowded, I missed seeing some beautiful flower compositions. Everything that relates to flower was there: garden art, art of entertainment...flower compositions on table, in the park, flowers in Thai, Chinese, India, Dutch, French, Canadian styles...lilies, roses, peanut plants, cocoa trees, bananas, fire flowers, Japanese bonsai... and exotic floras.

I loved the butterfly garden where there were plenty of beautiful butterflies, it felt like I was in a fairy tale or something. I always wonder why there is never such expo like this in VN given the fact that our culture also relates to agriculture. Vn is going industrialised in all sector except in agriculture where we are actually good at ;-(.

Next Saturday, again going to Leuven during the day, then back to Brussels for the "Cheese and Wine" party at Jeremie's place. Acc to some Coca cola and Toyota ppl, Italian wines are better than French wines, so we will be tasting to see which one is better ;-))). From what I saw in couple of mails, the argument has gone from wines, champaigns, football, and even to s3x, those perverts ;-)
