Springtime with the tulips

We met up with friends at the Tesselaar’s Tulip Festival again this year in Monbulk.  All those gorgeous colours are truly amazing! 

 
  
 
  

There are as always more to see than just the tulips.

 

Even in the fallen blooms there is perfection.  Spring has come!

Tesselaars Tulip Festival 2011

This year the festival started earlier than usual.  The warmer weather had caused all the flowers to bloom sooner than normal.  The display was definitely worth visiting!

We spent the day with wonderful friends, the kids having a ball running between the brilliant rows of flowers. 

    

 

The different days of the festival are themed.  We went on a Turkish day (the foods were really fabulous!).  The marching band was quite the experience to see.

Definitely going to visit again next year!

Tesselaar Tulip Festival

We spent a great day at the Tesselaar Tulip Festival during the school holidays.  It worked out really well, going on one of the days they had special activities for the kids.  The flowers were gorgeous!  The kids had a ball running in the mud between the colourful blooms.

 

    

 

I’ll post some more tomorrow.  I always take too many photos at the festival.  There are just so many gorgeous things!

Busy Bees

It really is getting close to summer, with the weather warming up fast and the insects becoming really busy.  Some of the brightest flowers are open and the bees are extremely busy at the moment.

I love how the sun makes tulips glow.  There is so much beauty in their simplicity.

Wildly colourful

The yellow tulips were definitely the dominant flowers at the Tesselaar Tulip Festival, but there were tons of other colours as well.

There were pinks and purples, reds and all sorts of mixes.
