…out of snowdrops and crocuses, some of the trees are already blooming and spring herbs are happily growing all over the place. The air was warm that day, the sun was shining (well, at least from time to time) and lots of people were outside, enjoying this early spring weather.

I am amazed in particular by the crocuses I see everywhere: I’ve never seen such big crocuses in my life!
