Tesselaar Tulip Festival

It's spring!! Which also means it's time for tulips to bloom! So me and 2 of my housemates went to the tulips festival by public transport. First tram, then train and finally bus and the total time taken was 3 hours. @@" The busses were provided. They were already there waiting by the time we got down from the train. Felt like going on a holiday tour. Lol.
The busses went to and fro from the station to the place for the whole afternoon to pick up people and to fetch people back to the train station. That's convenient! Didn't have to find our way there ourselves. xD

Pri, one of my housemate from India. Just finished masters in biotech and she is seaching for job currently.

Tulips! I haven't seen a real tulip before. All I know it's shaped like a cup. @@" It's so colourful.
Photography time!

So hard to avoid taking tulips picture without someone bumping into it. Since it's weekend, there were a lot of families and couples came to the tulips festival.

Falling in love with photography. Taking pictures of the beautiful nature was so much fun and full of joy.

They decorated the place like in Holand. Even some of the workers there were wearing Dutch costumes.

Spot a gnome hiding.

A picture of my Vietnamese housemate taking pictures of the tulips. xD
People even brought along their four-legged man's-best-friend!
Not only angmo dogs came to join in the crowd, but asian dogs were kiasu too. xD

See what I found! A bee with a tulip!
And also a doggie with tulips! Looked like paparazi hunting down a doggie star. =D

The colourful tulips made us forgot about taking pictures of ourselves too. Too into taking close up pictures with the tulips. Here's me and my Vietnamese housemate, Jessie.

At the bottom of the hill. The weather was just nice without the sun. Cooling 19 degrees celcius.

More pictures of us. This is a pictures-more-than-words post. Me with pink and yellow tulips.
Pri with yellow and red tulips.
Jessie with pink, white and yellow tulips.

Trying to take a proffesional picture but not as nice as what I wanted. Can make this into poscards. Hehe.

Half way through, there were 2 people blowing pan pipes like Scottish people. Then all the people followed at the back to take pictures. Lol.

Tulips on sale.

After 3 hours of looking at tulips, we went back. Passed by the city and so went to San Churros for a hot chocolate. It's famous for their chocolates. The chocolate cakes were so tempting! Here's the Spanish hot chocolate. It was so thick until I felt like drinking a creamy mushroom soup. @@" Can't drink this too many times. Feel jelak.
And there goes my Saturday. Need to give my legs some rest. Hehe.
