Keukenhof (the Netherlands)


Keukenhof (outside Leiden, the Netherlands) is only open a few months of the year and is a "must-see". Every significant bulb grower is given the opportunity to landscape a portion of the gardens, so each section is more beautiful than the next. Although it was cold and drizzling, our (Raji, Kris, Carrie) spirits were lifted by the beauty in these gardens.

After watching people "walk on water", I had to come try it for myself. There are a series of concrete blocks just below the surface of the water. Thus, I could create the illusion that I was walking across the lake.
