Flower Parade (Netherlands, Abril 2011)

Last weekend I went with friends to the biggest flower parade in the Netherlands. It happens once a year and this year about a million people attended. They have some floats with figures made from flowers and it's kind of cool. Only thing is Dutch people in general REALLY don't know how to express it when they like something, be it clapping, shouting, whistling or anything like that. So people did not get too excited as many others would, but it was cool nonetheless.
We went by car with a Dutch friend of ours who was driving and also saw some really beautiful flower fields in the area near Amsterdam. The weather is getting quite warm now and flowers are just blooming everywhere! It's quite beautiful and I will certainly miss this show of nature when I move out of Europe. But from what I have seen, the US also has some amazingly beautiful places and scenery.
