21st of March = SPRING!!!

So, its officially the first day of Spring. Clocks go forward this weekend. I love this time of year, early evening sun here we come!!!!!!!  Have you any signs of Spring yet?  We have a few sprouts of green and the possibility of some blossom but thats all so far.  Last week in the Alps in the lower down villages there were some pretty yellow flowers starting to pop up under the chair lifts.  So pretty, it always amazes me that there is so much life just waiting under the snow to burst into life, even more amazingly is that It really doesn't take long.  


ps.  Sorry about the 'pretty blosson' photos - I just can't resist!  I predict a few more before the season is done, I guess I'm more girly than I like to think I am!

Outside in

I've had these images in a folder on my hard drive called 'spring at the botanics' for so lond now that its not even Spring anymore. Better late than ever, I won't bore you with all the blossom pics though, it probably is a bit late for those!

Also have you seen this beautiful selection of jewlery from the Vamoose? I just got home to find the postman had been and left one of her beautiful bracelets.

Sweaty greenhouses

I love how the plants look though the glass of these amazing greenhouses, hot, humid and sweaty! Its kind of like a 'steamy nature' version of this and also these.

Also Happy Easter!
