Flower Dome



The Flower Dome is the twin sister of the Cloud Forest.  Oh, how I wished that Erika could see all of this, she being the horticulturist of the clan.  While I felt a sense of child-like wonder  at the Cloud Forest, the Flower Dome was the photographer's Mecca, with natural colors of the flora inter-playing with the cold glass and steel of the egg-shaped dome.  It was a very relaxing tour, and this is one place that lovers can go to, just sit around and spend a (most luxurious) day doing absolutely nothing!








Absolutely super relaxing!  I totally admire the commitment of the Singaporean government to recreate the environment for all these plants and flowers to grow properly.  I understand that most of these were shipped in from various places around the world, and that the air-conditioning is kept running round-the-clock, 24/7!




It's like strolling around in France, makes you feel in love... I'm wild again, beguiled again, a simpering, whimpering child again... bewitched, bothered and bewildered, am I!
