Spring has sprung

My blog posts seem to move with the seasons and with the threat of summer in the air i think it's time for another post (although I really should be posting more often), especially as i'm sitting on my balcony in a patch of sun. The last couple of weeks in Zurich we've had more and more sunshine and less and less cold and grey which makes me happy :) all the trees are starting to get their shoots and my spring tulips are growing fast! With Spring/Summer comes a change of atmosphere in Switzerland, the country comes alive with people spending as much time as possible outside... cafes sprout up all over the place, late picnics by the lake, frisbee in the park and of course, braais on the balcony... Summer in Europe rocks :)

Stu and i are looking at our options for our European summer holiday this year and although I would kill to chill out on some tropical island somewhere, our holiday this year has to unfortunately include some dentist work for me, so it looks like Budapest for us but we plan to extend it to include Vienna and Krakow as well. Anyway for now it's just in the planning phase, so we shall see what we come up with :)

I'm going to get back to soaking up the sunshine... have a fantastic Sunday :)
