Vacation Flowers

Hi everyone!  A day late and not with the topic that I intended, but here I am.  I was going to start up with a More of Less post yesterday, but I will have to put that off by another week.  My dad is in the hospital and so my mind had been a little all over the place.  I did, however, want to quickly share with you some of the pictures that I took while on vacation.

We spent 10 relaxing and much needed days in Safaga, Egypt located by the Red Sea and about 570 km from Cairo.  During our stay I took pictures of the flowers located on the grounds of the resort.  A feeble few I was able to identify, but I have no idea what the names of the remaining are.  Maybe some of you can identify some of the other plants or can correct what I have identified incorrectly?

Hibiscus

Bougainvillea





Calendula?

Lantana


I have quite a few post topics floating around in my mind and I will have to see how I will squeeze it in.  It is odd how in such a short time this little blog have become so important to me and it really is a good outlet.  Somehow therapeutic even.

Have a great day everyone.
