Hogenboom boom

A little Easter road trip to Holland with the family, staying in a holiday home village called Hogenboom. From the website it looks like a bit of a chain around Europe, we found it though a holiday home website. It was like staying in an Ikea show room for a few nights, which I actually quite enjoyed. The one we stayed at was a fairly new complex with units still being built around the water. 

Main reason we chose Holland was to see the tulips in the Keukenhof gardens. well worth it, we were a touch too early for the peak, but there was still loads in bloom. On the way back we stopped off in Gent to see the Esher Museum - the artist who creates worlds from prints that are imaginary and challenge your perception of reality. We also had time in Gent to visit the Design Musem who was showcasing an exhibition by lifestyle designer Dirk Wynats

Of course there was the obligatory stop in a French hypermarche to finish off our Europe trip.
