Tulip Fields season

This year (2015) I go to this Keukenhof Garden in the early April (4th April 2015). It is a bit disappointing because I go there too early and the weather is quite cold compared to last year. So the chance for me to see the tulip is only indoor not outdoor though. But indoor tulip has offered me hundreds different kind of tulips with amazing different colors. I started to know this Keukenhof in the ealy 2013 and since then I will always go here for the tulip season.

This year only I already been there for 4 times. The second trip also for me is a bit disappointing as the weather is still a bit cold and raining the whole time. So I only spend my 2 days here and go back home. On the 3rd and 4th trip which is the second week of April until end of April. I am so thankful that I could see the beautiful scenery from different kind of tulips at Keukenhof and we can also rent a bike to go along the big tulip farm and let me tell you, it is worth it!
