Thursday ,April 18,2013

   We were up and on the bus early to travel to the float barn to design on the floats for the 66th annual flower parade car floats. The bus took us on a delightful drive through the country side,telling is about his country for 45 minutes to Sassenheim.
   The float barn was full of the sweet fragrance of all spring bulb flowers. The flowers are cut from the bulbs,and not uses. The bulbs are then sold on the market.The flowers are grown for the bulbs.
It was wonderful,just wonderful.
   There were lots of  designers workers,visitors and very important people,as thy will love to tell you.
This is a mini Rose Bowl parade ,sort of. The pictures on Facebook page Koehler trip will give you a nice look at our assignments and creative work.
   Jacqueline brought us all lunch,thank you for that Jacqueline and Claus.
   We left the barn for Amsterdam. Amsterdam is open Thursday evenings until 9:00. We split in many groups. Dawn,James and I went off to look at flea rackets ,local selling places,all fun spots. We walked and walked and walked and walked,ate some and walked more. It was so windy,but NO SNO W.
   The bus ride to the hotel was quiet and relaxing.
