Keukenhof Gardens

On our final full day, the goal was tulips, which was our primary reason for the cruise. Keukenhof is one of the world’s largest flower gardens and consists of 80-acres of tulips, as well as many other flowers, including hyacinths, daffodils, lilies, roses, carnations and irises.

Day 16 – The Foundling Museum

There was a Tube strike on Tuesday, and while their dispute over pensions and job cuts is probably legitimate I can only imagine the negative economic impact of the strike during high tourist season, not to mention lost productivity as workers come in late or not at all.
