Skagit Valley Tulip Festival and Charming Town of La Conner

There are many awe-inspiring places in the Pacific Northwest.  The Skagit Valley and the town of La Conner are known for their scenic landscapes and panoramic views of the river and the mountains.  The Skagit Valley Tulip Festival, held every year in April, exhibits expansive fields of blooming daffodils and multi-colored tulips.  Dutch immigrants originally planted the tulips across the valley.  Nowadays, Skagit Valley is a popular springtime destination to admire the rows of blooming tulips and daffodils.  The following farms have beautiful tulip fields and garden displays: RoozenGaarde, Tulip Town, Tulip Valley Farms and Garden Rosalyn.  During our visit, we encounter beautiful dogs sitting in the yellow tulip fields.
