We are back in Gangtok with lots of stories to share. The Coelogyne cristatas were amazing. The flowers were so fresh. What a birthday treat for Matt.

This is us saying goodbye for the next two nights, as we are moving on to Ravangla where we are unlikely to have Internet to update you guys. When we get back to Internet we will let you know about all that has happened.

This was the most impressive side of the road I have ever driven past. There were loads and loads of Dendrobium nobiles in almost every tree. This is an example of one that we saw.

We visited the national agriculture research centre for orchids and looked around there greenhouses and labs. We then presented what we do at school to them. This is our team with theirs.

One of the biggest worries as a trip leader is having students that don’t eat properly and so get ill, however, this trip is worry free with everyone eating really well. Breakfast is a six course gourmet delight and enjoyed and devoured by all! Especially Devin.
