Here is a nice picture of Cismigu Gardens in Bucharest that I took on Friday after work.
Happy Wednesday. 😀

Travel Tuesdays 19: Bluebell woods
Many woods and gardens in England at this time of year are full of spectacular carpets of bluebells. Here is a photo from a little outing I had on Saturday to Rode Hall, near Congleton in Cheshire. Don’t you just love the bluebells?
Dense blossom
Here is a Dense array of blossom in a nearby park. I love blossom! 😊
In response to the word press weekly challenge.
Usually I would use the word dense to mean something else. For example, “Oops, I just got to the checkout in the supermarket and realised I forgot my purse! I’m so dense!” Haha.
Teaching Tales 2: It’s -not quite so- easy being green!
For the past two weeks, I’ve been trying to grow bean plants with my class. Well, of course my teaching assistant’s plant has grown more than anyone else’s! It looks like being green is easy for her, although it’s been a bit more difficult for the kids and me! We wonder if she used magic beans?
For the weekly post challenge It’s easy being green.
Golden hour in Bucharest
A perfect little after school walk during golden hour. 😊
Travel Tuesdays 13: A trip to Rasnov
This weekend, I went on on a church trip to Rasnov, another town in Transylvania. We did some lovely things there, like going on a walk to this canyon:
(See me, looking somewhat lost in the canyon!)
The road taken to Rasnov has plenty of stunning scenery, like this mountain:
And this fortress:
I love trips to the mountains!
Martisor, 1st March, the first day of Spring!
Today is Martisor in Romania, which is the first day of spring here. We had lovely spring weather today (sunny and warm) and I really hope this weather stays like this now… All the snow has melted and I hope it won’t come back again until next winter!
On 1st March, it is traditional to give little trinkets, bracelets, brooches and so on to your female friends (men don’t get any, sorry men!) Here is a photo of me, enjoying all of my little Martisor gifts! People don’t usually wear all of their gifts like this, but I thought it was more fun to wear them all at once. 😊
Against the odds
I remember a special day when, against the odds I made it to work in a blizzard through knee-deep snow! (It was in early January.)
Hope it’ll melt and spring will come soon…!
Solitude
Time taken to relax
Ponder, reflect and dream
Make plans and reminisce
A brief respite from the hubub of life.
Graceful Trees
Don’t these white, frosty trees look Graceful? 😊
