Vantages

 The next bed of tulips was the raised circular bed, with a mix of orange-yellow tulips, as well as the white and red Canada 150 type.



Beyond that, the lightly planted flowerbed, with the sculpture at one end.


Carrying on, the path led past a large display of a scene from the Netherlands.


Nearby were a series of panels on the ties between Canada and the Netherlands, with the friendship of the two countries rising up out of the Second World War.

Scenery

 Continuing on today, here we have more tulips.


The large standalone bed was next.


These purples particularly commanded my attention.


And still there was more.

Macro

 Continuing today where I left off yesterday, with more tulips along that low stone wall.


I liked how this close up shot came out.


I carried on along the path, and this little doggie caught my eye, but was much more engaged in sniffing everything.

Beast

 Here we carry on, with a stream of tulips between bushes.


Move a few feet, and the perspective changes.


From beauty to one ugly beast. The path led on, and I decided to document this hideous infill housing that clashes horribly with the neighbourhood.


I feel sorry for the neighbour across the street- this house is a lovely one.


One more view. I suppose this thing might fit in somewhere else- but here it sticks out like a sore thumb. And it seems perennially for sale.


The tulips are far more pleasant.
