Keukenhof, Netherlands

This year, we headed right into the heart of spring: Keukenhof! The weather had other ideas (cool, mostly cloudy, windy), but we oohed and aahed anyway, albeit through shivering teeth.

Only a cold-hearted soul would fail to be impressed with this gorgeous array in the largest bulb flower garden in the world. Although many types of flowers are displayed, the main attraction is the 4.5 million tulips in 100 varieties. I didn’t count, but that claim seems about right. Every step along the paths in the 80-acre garden is more colorful than the last. We were a little early for some of the tulips, but even if a million or so haven’t bloomed yet, we got our fill.
