Skagit Valley Tulip Festival 2012

Sometimes it's difficult to think of what to do on the weekend. Yesterday, Roger and Tracey had the great idea of going to the Skagit Valley Tulip Festival in Mt. Vernon. Roger recently saw John Greengo's photos on FB and was really impressed by the colours. So they packed up the car and decided to head south for the day. They weren't disappointed, it's pretty amazing. Yesterday was actually the last day of the festival and lucky for them there were still several tulip fields open. It was a pretty mucky trek through the muddy fields, but worthwhile. The kids were great, they didn't fuss at all considering they were delayed at the border for almost an hour. They're pretty good travellers those two. On the way home, they stopped at Bellis Fair and did a bit of shopping and had a snack. Here are some photos from the festival.
