Destination? Lewes, Delaware, Tulip Festival, Friday, 4/11, Events, The First Town in The First State, Delaware Beaches, TGIF!
TGIF, that’s for sure and what a gorgeous day it is in the Delmarva Peninsula. Over the years, Lewes has been holding their Tulip Festival around this week-end. So many events are planned for the visitors that migrate to our beaches during the Spring to view these beautiful flowers. I think the tulips might not be blooming yet….you know it has been a hard winter. Nevertheless, enjoy the many activities this Friday has to offer in this historic town.
