I used to go to Holland the last weekend of April each and every year to commune with Spring in Lisse and thrill my senses with massive displays of narcissi, hyacinths and tulips at the Keukenhoff. It was for me a kind of spiritual necessity after surviving a long gray winter in Germany and always one of the highlights of my year. Bike rental was reasonably cheap and one could ride for hours in and about the tulip fields just soaking up the colors and scents, stopping at will to take a closer look at some particularly lovely specimen.
