To my dearest Ottawaians,


This is not what I imagined Ottawa to look like in spring. There has been so much rain in the last few weeks that the annual Tulip Festival was covered with grey clouds. It was cold, windy and tulips washed out by the environment.
I always imagined the tulip festival as a nice, bright, friendly and happy occasion and it was totally the opposite. It's dull, it's dim, sales were grumpy, flowers were stripped. Even it's saturday the park was empty. It was understandable why the booth owners were angry; however, showing it as emotions on the face is just not the way to go. If I didn't borrow an entry pass from my friend I wouldn't want to pay to go. It was sad.
Hope next year and many years coming better than this year.

from one of the visitor of the festival

cwang, I never thought of that when I was typing it actually. Now that you mentioned it, I should think of more of them to extend the cherry-esque dictionary. :)
