Take Me There #5 – Spring Holidays

Spring Scotland

Lovely colors in Scotland. photo: http://thebesttraveldestinations

It’s the best time to go and visit Europe’s wonderful display of nature. Not only is the weather pleasant in spring (ranging within 10°-20°), the flowers, the sky and every other spring colors would surely be lovely to photograph.

On top of my list would be the Netherlands for the tulips. It’s been my fervent hope to see a bed of tulips in different colors, still on the ground and not as a bouquet. ^_^ The windmill would be a bonus! I think I caught a bit of the Tulip Mania — unfortunately though I wasn’t given bulbs to plant.

Then there’s cherry blossom viewing (Hanami) in Japan. Although I would love to do that in Washington, DC as well. Being under cherry trees in full bloom with the petals falling on the ground is so magical…yes, even when it’s just watching a movie, I could feel simple joys of spring.
