On Sunday, we went to the last day of the Spring Flower Show at the Chateau de Grand-Bigard. It was only about 15-20 minutes away from our house, right on the outskirts of Brussels.
It was really beautiful..... some of the tulips had past their prime, but some were just starting to pop.
Next year.....if it's warmer, we'll have to go when it's a nicer day and do a full blown photo shoot. But as it was only in the 40s, Grace had her winter coat on...
.... which I guess still made for a pretty cute picture. Which, if you click on it, you can see the remnants of her peanut butter sandwich. Sigh.
And the two little future botanists were bundled in blankets...... but enjoyed a nice nap strolling through the gardens.....
Here is an album of HUNDREDS of pictures. Chateau de Grand-Bigard Pictures
I couldn't resist. It was really a beautiful place, even without the flowers.

When we were leaving we discovered that we were blocked in by a parade. It was honoring St. Wivina. We're not real sure why there was a parade, since her feast day is in December. But it was so quaint and old fashioned.
