Spring is Here!

Published on by Grace8 Comments

After the seemingly endless winter weather that we’ve had over here, I was elated this past weekend as spring finally came.

We took a walk to town through the woods and were having a grand time just looking at these leaf buds.  The birds were also singing and the air smelled so fresh.

We then went to feed the ducks and the swans.

And of course the trip wouldn’t be complete without a quick stop at the playground.

Right now, a lot of visits and weekend trips are already planned.  On top of  that, we will have to put in a lot of work with our house landscaping too.  With too many activities planned and with relatively short time,  I am now beginning to understand why Czechs really love the outdoors.

Winter. Again?

This past weekend, we had 2 bright sunny days which made me feel like spring is really in the air. But what greeted me this morning was this.

Looks like winter is not going anywhere.

After 5 months with this kind of weather, it  is starting to wear me down.  Don’t get me wrong.  It is such a pretty sight.  It’s nice when you don’t need to go anywhere, but it sucks when you have to  (which is my case).

And spring is when, again?  Oh well….
