Yesterday when I woke up there was snow on the ground but the sun came out eventually and it turned into a really nice day. I decided to spend the afternoon visiting the Tulip Festival at Thanksgiving Point. It was absolutely perfect because the temperature was cool and it wasn't crowded. There are fifteen different themed gardens featuring 280,000 tulips in hundreds of varieties imported from Holland. I loved wandering through all of the blooms.
The Creek Garden
The Italian Garden
The Fragrance Garden
The Secret Garden (my favorite)
The Tulip Festival has been extended through May 11 at Thanksgiving Point. It is open Monday through Saturday from 9:00 am to 8:00 pm. Tickets are $20 in advance for adults and $15 in advance for children ($25 at the door for adults and $20 at the door for children). The tickets this year are time specific. When you buy an advance ticket you will be asked to pick a time to visit. This is so they can control how many guests are in the garden at any one time and I really appreciated that as it does sometimes get very crowded. Go here for more information and to purchase tickets.
