I like that Magic Lantern. Your pictures look good with the nice fern backround.

Beautiful!! I can see how the pouch on the first could be considered small when you compare it to Magic Lantern, but I think it is still well proportioned in relation to the rest of the bloom.

You have a very nice Magic Lantern! I want one, but haven't ordered one, because I heard that the intensity of the yellow spot can be very variable, so it's best to buy an in bloom plant.

Thanks Camillie, hey guess what! I am going to be in Lyon in May. Cannot wait, I hear the food is terrific. Will let you know what I think of that beautiful city when I get back. Hopefully they tolerate my lack of french skills there.

Definitely go to the Brasserie Georges to eat!! The food is great, and they primarily serve specialties of Lyon and the region. The prices are decent as well. It's not in the best of locations (stuck between the train/bus station and the highway), but the atmosphere and food makes up for it! Brasserie Georges

I'm sure you'll find some people that speak a little English! Younger people all learn it in school, but the level isn't very high. When are you going? I may or may not be spending a few days in lyon in May.
