After almost a month on the road, it is truly wonderful to be back in the USA again.
I can blog again as my blog is in English now and not in Thai.
Angkor in Cambodia was Amazing.
I discovered a ground orchid at dawn at Angkor Wat.
It looked like stars or blossoms fallen from a tree.
I brought back 3 pressed blooms, but somehow forgot to take pictures of them -- but -- amazing again, I found untitled photographs of the same orchid in a guide book on Chiangmai.
I will find out what is the name of "my orchid" by writing to the biodiversity center listed there.
How wonderful and awful is globalisation.
