Keukenhof

Amsterdam is a great city, but the real reason that we came to Holland was to see flowers!  We weren't disappointed.  For only 3-4 weeks all the flowers are in bloom.  It is a very crowded time, but the only way to miss the crowds is to miss the tulips.



Of course!  We were able to go up the windmill as well.



Fields full of colorful stripes.  You could get a bunch of 30 flowers for only 5 euros.  I wish that we lived closer so that I could have grabbed some for the table.


Notice the height on these ones.




Darin says that my leg looks funny.  I like the picture, he is almost grinning.




No funny leg here.




I have at least a hundred more pictures I could post, but I'll spare you the beauty.  We loved seeing the flowers.  I also loved that my allergies didn't bother me a bit!

  1. Have your boys seen The Best Two Years? It's my favorite "Mormon movie." (Ok, it's the ONLY Mormon movie I can stand.) Anyways, it's set amid the tulips of Holland.
