Back in Holland for the Tulip Festival







We made another trip to Holland. Again, it was sensational to be able to spend some more quality time with Oma.

We made a point of lining our trip up to coincide with the Dutch Tulip Festival. It was thoroughly worthwhile. We spent a day strolling through the gorgeous gardens of Keukenhof and tried to make the most of the macro lens.

The festival was just beginning to come to an end so missed the opportunity of seeing the fields in full bloom and getting the clichéd ‘field of tulips with a windmill in the background’ shot, but that took nothing away from the gardens in Keukenhof. The colours were vibrant, the landscaping and design of the gardens was beautiful, and there was quite an amazing range of unique flowers. All in all, it was a wonderful experience and well worth making the effort to line our trip up.
