Spring!

There are signs of spring everywhere. Mind you, Denmark is a bit like New Zealand, surrounded by sea and changeable in weather from one day to the next. I laughed a bit too soon with the wind. Yesterday it was sunny but there was a 'strong breeze' - almost worthy of a Wellington day and to top it off, it suddenly clouded over, hailed to the point of turning everything white, then shone sunny and blue sky again. Just like home :-)
Its snowing or 'sleeting' again today.
I realized I had taken a couple of the same photos in different weather, so put a couple together for a comparison.


And Easter is in spring for the first time in my life. There are cards, loads of chocolate treats and flower displays everywhere. Like this one.


They are BIG on Easter here.
Lots of these flowers in all the parks. I think they are crocuses?


And on a different note altogether, I saw this Dad and his little girl shopping the other day. She took great care to use her little shopping trolley and he had total patience. Very cute.

  1. The crocuses look so beautiful. I had forgotten how lovely they are at the end of winter.
    If you want to see spring flowers you should travel to Keukenhof, outside Amsterdam. Go for a weekend. The tulip gardens are absolutely beautiful - beyond imagination.
