Spring

It is totally spring in Dublin. Buds are growing, trees are blooming and spring flowers are coming into blossom. Actually it is very interesting how vegetation grows here. It is almost continuous and very slow. For instance the trees started to bloom two weeks ago and they are not yet done. The daffodils in my garden did the same and, to my joy, they last much more than the ones in a vase.
I went for shopping in the morning and I couldn’t resist stopping to smell the sweet fragrance of the flowered trees and feel the gentle sun beams on my skin. Too bad that I caught a little cold and I can’t stay longer outside.
