I've been to many festivals including October-Fest in Germany. Two weeks ago I took my wife to the Tulip Festival in the Skagit Valley,WA. Its something my wife wanted to seen for years but we never seemed to have the time or good weather. Attachments:

The 2nd day was wet as it rained the night before. Very few visitors around. That was OK as I hate crowds. Attachments:

They had some great flower gardens to wonder through. Wife enjoyed it all and we had a good trip. The trip had something for both of us; Tulips, Ferry Boat trip, and a stop at the Whidby Island Naval Air Station. Attachments:
