Saturday, March 16th was a lovely day, so I wanted to photograph flowers etc.I went to a open garden in Rucphen. Every day open, except saturday. Next I went to the Arboretum in Oudenbosch. Although a trencher said the park was open from april 1st, the gate stood open and I walked inside. Within 5 minutes I stood outside again: the "chief" send me out. My 3rd and last try was in the Arboretum of Kalmthout, about 20 km. beyond the border from Holland. And finally I succeeded. So you can watch the photo's.
