The Tulips

At the information center in Creil you can watch a show garden  full of different tulips.







The information center has a very pretty garden.

With some sculptures.

And places to sit and have a drink. The dog belongs to the center and liked to keep the visitors company as a real host.

And guess what, on our way home the bridge openend again!

I stepped out of the car to see what huge cargo ship was passing but I could only see two of those little sailing boats! That's why the whole traffic had come to a standstill.

  4. Tulips are one of my favorites. They grow well here but we don't have fields of them.

  10. Dearest Marianne,
    Oh my sure it doesn't look fair for so many cars having to wait for the drawn up bridge; only to let a few mini boats pass below...
    Your tulip photos are gorgeous and what lovely gardens.
    Hugs,

  11. Gorgeous tulips! I love that they have a dog in the information center's garden.
    I just saw on google maps that Creil is quite close to Giethoorn.

  12. What a great place.
    And the dog-host is a beauty!:)
    I know there are organised trips from Norway to Holland to SEE the Tulips, and I saw some in your photos that I have never seen here up in the north of Europe.
