Sunday, 16 May 2010. Last day of Keukenhof, "Kitchen Garden", is located near Lisse, the Netherlands. It's the world's largest flower garden, covering 32 hectares with over seven million flowers!

The next day, its Sunday the 19 of April and me and dad and Liz get us some bikes. We go riding in around the tulip fields of the Keukenhof! For those that don’t know the Keukenhof is the largest tulip sculpture garden in the Netherlands. We did not go into the gardens. Instead we cycled around the area of the Keukenhof. We cycled about 10km the whole day. I was so proud of dad. He went strong! We cycled to the surrounding town of Lisse. On the way we of course made numerous stops to smell and admire the beautiful flowers.
