Dorothy,(Dot10932) is on holidays from the States and came to Canberra, Australia. We had a great day talking and looking at the gorgeous flowers on display at Floriade, our annual spring flower fesival. We couldn't have asked for better weather, nice and warm and sunny.
She met up with Rainy Day and others from Melbourne last week and she will soon be off to Sydney to look up some more members.

It was really fun to actually meet someone from here, I hope I can do it again someday.

That looks like so much fun! I am glad you two were able to meet up. Thanks for sharing the pictures.

How lucky that the two of you could meet & spend the day together!! :D I am so excited for the both of you. I love the picture's you took with all of the pretty flower's!! Fun-Fun!!
:D :D :D :D

How nice to have met a fellow board member - I thought I would manage to do that in August at the UK Festival of Quilts, but I didn't find her.
I remember the Floriade when I went to Canberra in 1988, I have a feeling it might have been the first, because I was told that a lot of the bulbs had been supplied by The Netherlands as part of the 200 years celebrations. Apparently the bulbs had to be conditioned so that they flowered in your springtime, rather than a Northern Hemisphere springtime.

How nice! I bet you two had a wonderful day! And the flowers are beautiful.

Aw, looks like you both had a great time! Lucky you, and I love the pictures!

Great picture!
I just love all those flowers!!
I just wanna know one thing....why didn't ya swing by and pick me up and take me too? ;)

How fun! Glad you two were able to get together.
