Boeing and Tulips

Eli and I went up to Everett (heyo to my buddy back home!) to the Future of Flight Boeing Tour. We weren't allowed to bring in purses, cell phones, etc. because it's a working factory so we don't have any pictures. It was cool to see though. The building was HUGE--they told us you could fit the Empire State Building in x2 and still close the doors. I have a few pilots in my family and I think they would have loved it!  The weather was really nice and we were 40 minutes away from Skagit so we drove north to the Tulip Festival!

There were fields of tulips! It was really really cool. I did not wear appropriate footwear, but we managed anyway. The festival goes through the end of April so I think we went at a good time. Most of them were in bloom. I said that it looked like where the Easter Bunny would live. We also went to Tulip Town, which was the tourist attraction. You know, they had tulips that were different colors (which was cool) but other than that it was kind of 'ehhh'. I preferred the open fields where Eli and I parked on the side of the road. We've really been packing our days full our here in Washington!! (Tulip Town, Open Field, By the Tulips, Kites at Tulip Town)
