Tulips, tulips, and more tulips

Isn’t this tulip field just breathtaking?!  Look at the colors!

I remember the first time I went to Europe many years ago…

It was in late April and my first stop was Amsterdam.  I was filled with excitement.  To see tulips.  And I did see some.  In patches. Apparently I had to go out of the city to see them in large swathes such as in the photos.  I was invited for a weekend picnic out of town where the tulips were but I had to leave for a seminar in Austria.  I saw more of them at the grounds of the Schloss where we stayed in Salzburg.  But not like this.  Not this colorblocked work of art that it is en masse.

Ah….it’s springtime.  Canals and tulips beckon.  It’s time to plan a trip…
