The rain looked like it would hold off long enough that the sun should be able to peek through and we be able to head stateside to enjoy the
Tulip Festival (one of my favourite spring things to do). The colours are breath taking, and we got there early enough that it was fairly quiet - it is one of my pet peeves to be somewhere naturally beautiful and have a bunch of strangers in all your pictures. Some places you expect this, but I will patiently wait to try to get the shot without the other peeps in it. These pics were taken from display gardens containing more varieties of tulips than I care to count: all different colours, heights, sizes, some doubles, some early blooming, some almost done.
By the time we were done our sight seeing and sunday driving, it seemed that trying to get fish and chips in either La Connor (no parking spots to be found) or White Rock (50th anniversary celebration and everyone, and I mean everyone was out crowding the streets), or the local shop (closed Sundays, WTF?) was a mission impossible so we ended up grabbing some take out to go back home and chill.
