Tulips, tulips, tulips .....

I always love tulips! Of course we don't have it here in Malaysia

I prefer the 'original' tulip. I don't quite like the dwarf tulip or the multi-color/dwi-color tulip. I love looking at the big single color tulip .... I may sound conventional .

During recent holiday in Spain, we encountered quite a number of places where there are beautiful blooming tulips - and it was the type that I like!

Here are some of the pictures that I would like to share with you. To some of you it may be nothing new, but to me ... It made my day. LOL

 

So, don't be surprise if you see me having 'fun' taking picture of tulips :

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And here's the outcome: (tulips near Puente Romana/Roman Bridge at Cangas de Onis)

Eventhough we're stranded at Bilbao, at least that city has pretty tulips for my camera.

Look closely and you will spot the sparrow! :)

We spotted a rows of big tulips while driving to leave Gijon and we end up looking for parking!

The same color tulips were spotted on the roadside in Ribadesella.

  6. We saw several daisies 'field' throughout our holiday. Finally I told Herbie that I got to do it ;) .... it's like my childhood dream. Lying on a field of daisies ... heheeee. Herbie can't complaint when I handed him the camera. LOL. And he made me a diasies chain bracelet ;) ... because that reminded him of his childhood :)
