Awesome Castlefest

Castlefest 2015 took place in Keukenhof  - a place where tulips were reigning just recently. This festival literally have casted a spell upon us! We've never seen before so many people all ages wearing fancy dresses though we've visited events like that not once. Whole families came to have a fun together. Fathers, mothers, grandmothers, grandfathers and even dogs. Everyone masquerades! Mam is Black Queen, daughter is Fallen Angel. Grandfather-pirate and grandmother-pirate. Dogs in harness ruled by troll. Fairies, elves, dwarves. Gothic and steam-punk. We were enjoying every moment beginning with an hour's cycling to Keukenhof and finishing with a glass of wine on a rug near stage.
It was really difficult to take a picture there. Beaming holiday crowd was seething, constantly moving. That's why we've not photograph a lot. I would like to come back next year - wearing a fancy dress!

In the dark, dark woods...

Passions are seething!

It looks like a steam-punk is a favorite dutch genre regardless of age.

Dutch Martisha wishes you awesome evening!

Merriment near the stage (there were five stages at a festival) has started since early morning.

This guy wears cellular tights like Madonna in 80-s. 

New trend is lady with dog and perambulator

Perambulator is definitely trend.

Would you like free tree hugs?

Of course, we would like free tree hugs!

Music was amazing so was a sound.

Sad steam-punk. Like I said there was a lot of steam-punk style fancy dresses at a festival.

There is an inscription on a Sleepy Beauty's bag: "During zombie attack follow me"
