Flower & Garden Show... plus food... Plus Alcohol.
The number one attraction is the flowers & gardens... no to be missed.
Another plus is the merchandise related to gardens.
Then there's the food at special kiosks. Lots of great choices, kinda exotic.
(it's all a bit to artsie fartsie for me... being a simple meat & potatoes man).
Then there's the underlying emphasis of the show... the big money 💰 maker...
The alcohol drinks that are available at numerous kiosks plus the individual countries. Beer... wine... hard cider... mixed drinks... hard liquor.
All promoted via passport books, checklists, and special T-shirts to add to the excitement of drinking... and alluding to getting drunk... what joy.
NOTE: Flower & Garden show is not to be missed... but we generally avoid the park on Fridays & Saturdays after 4pm. Too much drinking for my taste, too little supervision, too little security, which leads to too much drunken behavior... which is not only discouraged... but encouraged via T-shirts etc. Not a good family atmosphere. But if you don't mind drinking, some drinks, distasteful behavior, some foul language, and rudeness... go for it. Otherwise enjoy the park daytimes and the other evenings.

Plus a lot of other topics thrown in to keep it interesting... or at least I hope so. Stories & photos of our adventures and our life on the road. Hope you enjoy reading it from time to time.
