Yesterday it was a big day! We were going to Milano, Italy, to the Crespi Cup 2008. We woke up at 4 am. and arrived at Milano at 10.30 am. Like every year there were some of the best european bonsai trees. And by the way we could se the huge offer of bonsai, prebonsai and pots at the big Crespi bonsai center.
Enjoy the photos!
