We always knew that The Netherlands (Holland) was famous for its tulips. As gardeners, seeing the gardens at Keukenhof, just simply took our breath away! It was amazing. Without a doubt, Keukenhof Gardens is the world’s biggest outdoor gardens.

While in Holland, Jean and I also spent a day at the village of Zaanse Schans where we got to see their large collection of windmills. For us, a trip to Holland just wouldn’t have been complete without seeing windmills in action.

It was our good fortune to visit Keukenhof on the Saturday of Easter weekend, and it was an unforgettable treat to be there, especially at that time. The children enjoyed hopping across the water using the circular concrete “stones,” provided for just that very purpose! Delightful spot, and great for photographers!
