    We (the Quicks) had never actually made it to the "tulip festival", but it was actually a lot of fun to see in person. We actually skipped the parade crowds, etc. but we did stop in at a couple of the farms.

    If going in a Ferrari it would seem that going >5pm affords the least traffic between the farms (i.e. STOP and go traffic was 1/2 mile or more between each parking lot of each farm... I could see how this would get old with a heavy clutch and not be a lot of airflow for the older cars!)...

    If you've never been before, like us, it might be worth seeing at least once.... here are a couple pictures.

    Als have some more at:

    and the full album is available by clicking any of the pictures from the link above.

    Just thought I'd mention it because it is local and we had never gone before and we all thought it was pretty cool to see in person.
