Some pictures from our trip to the Keukenhof.
It's an annual flower show, though we got there kind of late in the season unfortunately. Some of the flowers were already starting to die off.
Still well worth the visit, there were some gorgeous views.

Pretty wonderful. My wife and I went a couple years ago early in the season so we didn't get to see quite as spectacular of a setting, still really cool though.

Very beautiful, love gardens that incorporate trees! Putting on my list for a future visit.

Looks straight out of a fantasy book. Beautiful.

I loved Keukenhof! I think I went in May the year I went and it was spectacular. I also might have had a weed brownie that morning ha

This was in the beginning of May as well. It looked really gorgeous, but some of the flowers (tulips especially) were already wilting.
I think a week or so earlier would've been even nicer, though the weather was really good that day.
