Tulip- Tastic



I have always wanted to see the fields of blooming tulips in Holland and last week we got to go. We drove about two and half hours to the Keukenof in the Netherlands which just happens to be the most photographed place in the world (for good reason.) It was very busy probably because it was the day after the new king had been crowned in Amsterdam. The gardens are 32 hectares big..... I have no idea how big that is but I'll let google convert it later. I know it was giant and it was absolutely full of blooming flowers. It really looked like the Willy Wonka factory of gardens, with the greenest grass in several shades and every color imaginable of flowers. It also, to the kids delight had a zip line, a petting zoo, and a maze that we all went through several times.


She loved this little lamb and followed him around a while

The maze.... we raced but Michael cheated


A real organ grinder.... there was dancing


A rare picture ...... he was not made to take this one


look at our little tree huggers
