MinnieIvy: Tesselaar Tulip Festival

Tulip is my favourite flower ever! And I'm so lucky that there is an annual Tesselaar Tulip Festival in Victoria. It's not all year long, just during spring, 13th Sept till 9th Oct for year 2012. The venue is rather far, at Melway. It took us an hour train ride and another half an hour bus ride to reach the destination from Melbourne CBD. But, it's all worth it. The tulips are just stunning. There's special theme on weekend so we've decided to go on a Sunday, which happened to be Dutch-themed. Costs us $3 for return bus ride, $18 for adult entry ticket and $15 for concession.

This is the first part that we ventured after we got into the farm. OMG all the colours! This is my first time seeing and being this close with such huge variation of flower colours, and not just any flower, but tulips :O OMG OMG! Ok I guess some are not tulips, not so sure, because some don't look like tulips, or perhaps they're some special species?

Me, Suzanne and Shereen. First day meeting both of them, but it's really nice to know them. Glad that we're quite ngam lol Got windmill as background somemore *happy* don't need to go Holland dy haha.. just joking, not gonna give up any chance to travel!

Oh hai B!

More photos from the tulip farm below hehe.. They also have statues and deco all over the farm.

Since it was Dutch-themed, there was Dutch performances and food. We didn't pay attention to the performances because we were busy admiring the tulips lol. I notice that everytime there's any festival, the Dutch Poffertjes will always be there, what's more when this is Dutch-themed. It's sort of like little pancakes with various toppings to choose from. It was having such good sales that Suzanne and Shereen had to wait for 20 minutes to get theirs.
