Keukenhoff Park The park is open from mid March to mid May. I'd say mid April is probably the best time. It's hard to put an exact time because of weather patterns, etc. which can impact the 7 million bulbs each year.
Thats My School lol Doesn't look like much from the outside but many doctors have graduated from here. A few more months and i will be one of them. Honestly the best days of my life have all taken place on Bonaire.
I love Bonaire!! I Lived in Bonaire for 16 months while i attended medical school there, acctualy this picture is taken at the front gate of the school. I have been back from the Island for nine months now and i miss it more and more everyday. The Diving there is unbelievable!!!
I stumbled on your blogs today and have really enjoyed them Love the Caribbean and you've done a nice job with your blogs. Interesting photo of the ocelot.
Keep blogging.
Very well said! I love the way you described your visit to Roatan and AKR. I've lived on Roatan (originally from Ontario, Canada) since 2007. I'm not very far from AKR and admit other than the medical clinic I don't give it much thought. Your description of everything reminds me to not take it all for granted. I enjoyed the view through your eyes. Thank You

Great Blog! Wow, what a well written blog - excellent photos. Sounds like you really enjoyed Roatan and all it has to offer. You were brave to do the zip line. Quite adventurous! Looks like the snorkeling spots were great. Haven't been to Maya Key, but I understand they did a good job in reinventing it for the cruiseship crowd. If you come back to Roatan, try the less congested East part of the island. Its beautiful!

Fantastic You certainly put some time into this and it is greatly appreciated to live vicariously through your travels. What a trip! I most certainly enjoyed the photos of fish since we used to have a salt water tank when we lived in Georgia. Thanks for sharing!
The same experience in Keukenhoff Sekitar tahun 1995 -1997 saya beberapa kali kunjungi Keukenhoff Park disela-sela liburan kuliah. Sy kebetulan tugas studi lanjut di University of Ghent Belgium. Taman itu betul-betul indah dan saya foto keindahan itu dalam hampir 20 roll film saat itu dan membuat saya sangat kagum dengan kombinasi warna-warni dll nya. Pengalaman yang tidak akan terlupakan....
Nice story What a great story...I think it was called Sierra Vista Junior High School (Go Wildcats), or at least that was what it was called when I attended 7th-9th grades in the mid 70's. I to remember the drive-in theater, ( I went to Carmicheal too), I am sadden that the AW isnow gone, I am even more sadden that the old Buena is gone, while the new Buena looks nice, it doesn't have the character the old Buena had...remember the stables behind the school past the practice fields...through the wash (now a road)...thanks for the walk down memory lane.

Dutch ancesters names Kuykendall My grandmother was 100% Dutch which I found out when I started in genealogy in 1999. Her ancesters were from Amsterdam. The first generation coming to the US in 1646 was A Jacob Luursen Van Kuykendall. I am in the 11th generation after Abraham came to the US and to New Amsterdam on the east coast of the US, which is now Manhatten Island.
I have been through the Amsterdam airport several times, and would love to come and stay a few days in Amsterdam and walk around the area the Kuykendall families lived.
I live in Skagit County, Washington State. We have Dutch bulb growers on the Skagit Flats and I understand Holland gets a large share of their tulip bulbs from these farmers. We have a 3 week Tulip Festival in April when the tulips are in bloom and have many thousand visitors who come to walk in the fields and take pictures.
It is beautiful coming in to the airport and over the tulip fields in Amsterdam. I feel I have a connection.
When you tell me who you are. when you share with me your uniqueness, you will take me into a different world, a different time and place. You will take me into valleys and to the tops of mountains I have never seen. You will lead me into secret vaults of experiences!
Travel has always been my passion, it just seems to run deep in my veins! I plan on traveling to 88 different places before I pass on.
I live by two mottos in life:
#1 = GO FOR IT
#2 = IF YOU BELIEVE, YOU CAN ACHIEVE... full info
