Outings: Kurrebo.

An hour and a half's drive from where I live there's a place I've wanted to visit for years. Finally, a few weekends ago, I was able to go. The timing was great since Kurrebo is said to be at its most beautiful in September when thousands of dahlias are in bloom in the surrounding gardens. While I don't know what it's like during the rest of the year, I can't imagine that anything can top this. I'd never seen so many dahlias in one place before; in fact I had no idea they came in so many shapes and colours. It was truly breathtaking. The cozy little cafe in the gardens and the serenity of the place made it even better. I'm so glad I made it there at last.
