Tulip Festival

Tulips, tulips everywhere... Sunday was an absolutely beautiful day, so we decided to drive to Mount Vernon and see the pretty flowers. It's a 67 mile trip, according to Google, and it took us 5 hours to get there. Yes, the worse day possible and the best all wrapped into one. We took the ferry so that added to the time but, the traffic was insane. Everyone and their mother were out to see the tulips. We visited two gardens - Tulip Town and Roozen Gaarde, which was my favorite. Next time we go, we are planning for bikes, or parachutes, or rickshaw, or something other than driving in to avoid the traffic - live and learn; live and learn. I guess I could learn a lot from my kids - they did great.
