Gebied van tulpen

Posted by Cheryl on Apr 22 2007 | The Kitchen Sink

You know, weddings don’t have to be in the Netherlands to offer a spectacular vista.

Was off to Limerick this weekend for Knitter-Friend-Mary’s wedding. Lovely do and a great occasion to put on the posh frock. On the way, we encountered…

And such was the sight on the road to Limerick, just past Moneygall. Thank goodness for the wide shoulder at the side of the road for the queue of cars lining up for the photo op!

  2. lovely, lovely pictures and memories. above santa barbara, ca there were once fields upon fields of tulips. i, too, would be seduced to stop and look when driving between home and college. it was always so rejuvenating during the long drive. hope the wedding was fun!

  7. it’s a good thing that they are not closer to me here - or I would be tempted to nick a few of the dark purple ones… not for putting into a vase - but for natural dyeing!:)) I know, I am bad that way, but with only 4 or 5 of this colour in my garden it doesn’t really make much sense to use them!
