Delilah at Keukenhof Gardens

Hi all! I haven't posted since July 2018 which seems so long ago when you think about it. Now with the COVID-19 pandemic I finally have to time to catch up on this blog. We took photos of Delilah Dale last spring when we went to Keukenhof Gardens outside of Amsterdam in the Netherlands. Enjoy this post of Delilah, our globe trotting friend!

Delilah had settled in quite well into Brambly Corners but she still longed to see more of the world. She planned a spring trip to the Netherlands to see the tulips.

She knew she had to go to Keukenhof, one of the largest flower gardens in the world!


She was shocked to see how big all the flowers were, some of them towered over her!


She snapped some photos will all the rainbows of flowers she saw throughout the gardens. She'd never seen such a wide variety of flowers in one place before!




Not only did Keukenhof have tulips but it had daffodils as well. 


She took a little break to eat some apple pie and of course, Chocomel! Delilah had fallen in love with Chocomel ever since she had landed in the Netherlands. 


Delilah headed back out refueled with some food. That's when she stopped dead in her tracks. It was a Nijntje Miffy shop and Miffy herself was out front! 


Turns out that it wasn't the real Miffy. Delilah was a little disappointed but she was still excited to tell her friends back in Brambly Corners that she had seen the store. 


Delilah was awestruck seeing all of the amazing landscaping of Keukenhof. There were rivers, windmills, boats, gazebos, and of course, flowers! It was beautiful.


Before she left, Delilah remembered to take a photo in front of the Keukenhof Flower Planter. She was so glad she had gotten the chance to see all of this. She was excited she would have another story to tell at the kids back in Brambly Corners when they came to her candy floss cart.
