Keukenhof













Grandma and Grandad Holwell, together with Amy, visited us the first week of the Easter holiday. On their first day we walked into Sittard to have lunch. It was a little dreary but worth going as we also bought cheap train tickets, so the next day we went off to Keukenhof. It's a place outside Amsterdam, about a 3 hour trip from here - with train changes and a bus involved too. It's the area where they grow tulips and other flowers that are sold around the world. The range of tulips grown was amazing and the park was great to explore. I have put in lots of photos from the day. We left the house at 8.30 and returned by 7.30pm, a long day but I'm glad we went.

We also managed to squeeze in a quick trip to our local ice cream place. Dad and Abi both fitted in 3 scoops!
