We visited The Ranunculus Flower Fields in Carlsbad, in San Diego, CA three weekends ago. We come here almost every year and the time was just perfect. Beautiful weather, bright and sunny skies. We also had a chance to meet Betchai, a Filipino blogger. It is a 100-mile drive from Los Angeles.
The flowers are called ranunculus. They bloom only in the early part of Spring. The flower fields will be closed next weekend and getting ready again for the next season.
This is my model, Zee, my grown up, not kid anymore!
Isn’t it gorgeous?

Hi Ebie,

The flowers are gorgeous but they can’t out shine the beauty of Zee and her infectious sweet smile. She takes after her beautiful Mama.
Hope you all had a wonderful time…
