Jiggly
Starfruit at an open market in Singapore. I think the starfruit is kind of jiggly once they are sliced...
Summer of 2009, my daughter, Tracey and I went on a trip to Asia. We visited Singapore. We enjoyed a day at the Singapore Botanic Gardens. There is an area that has the largest collection of orchids. The demonstration lab , visible to the public, shows the Shaker room where orchids get a start... a jiggly procedure.
Here we are at one of the orchid gardens. A second look at my photo... I am jiggly in the middle... LOL
On that same trip, we visited Hong Kong. While there we visited Lantau island where the biggest Buddha is located. If this were not made of metal, it would have been jiggly. :)
Up close.
From afar....
Have a great weekend, everyone. It is a 3-day weekend for me. YEAH!

Thank you everyone for visiting and leaving comments.
Gen, that is right! Balimbing as we call the starfruit in Cebu. I could not recall what it was called.
Kim, Thank you for the compliments re, my daughter. My "jiggly" midsection should have been enough and an appropriate post, huh? LOL
Mrs. Mecomber, It was a learning experience for me to watch the orchid lab.

I've seen those star fruits but never tasted one. Pretty though. Great take on the theme! This was a tough one but yours was just right.
Drop by and check mine here.

Hi Eden, these are all wonderful choices for this week's jiggly theme. That's a really cool photo of you and your daughter in front of the orchids. And I too, did not realize that the orchids get a jiggly start. What a way to wake up. :)
Thank you so much for sharing more of your trip photos. It really looks like you and your daughter had a fabulous time. Enjoy your Sunday!
