We went last year. It wasn't bad. I want to go to the one in BC this year.
Agassiz near Harrison

It's going to open on April 10 this year.

I went to the one in BC before, it was much smaller than the one in the states probably because I went towards the end of the season.

However, while you are there, you can also go to

The Skagit one is pretty big. Some pictures we took last year:

This windmill is actually VERY small for pictures only. It's in the garden area where they plant many different kinds of tulips in small sections. Good for pictures.

We drove to La Conner (a town near by) to have late lunch at a brewery. good beer and nice wood oven pizzas. A bit of a wait for the table.

If you go with a tour to see the tulips, their itinerary usually is like this.

Raw Oyster Eating->La Conner->Tulips->Outlet

    We went there late April two years ago. For me, I think I still prefer go to Seattle. For about the same amount of driving time, I can also go to outlet for shopping and oyster on the way back. When I go to that BC tulip field, nothing else to do on the way...

如果LONG WEEKEND同HUNNIE去,一日夠唔夠架?定係兩日?
因為佢生日,或者去同佢睇吓靚花花,食吓野IN SEATTLE AREA,都好。
不過LONG WEEKEND去會唔會太早 OR 太多人?

One day should be enough.  I would suggest leave early to avoid traffic.  For sure if you go there near noon, the whole i-5 near that area will be packed.  It would be hard to even get off highway.
