See the french monkey!!

Watch and you will understand why he climbed this tree....



Yes... it was worth it..

A Sunday walk in an area FULL of cherry trees!!!

YUM... At first, we just ate from the tree. Then we continued with our walk... On the way back, before heading home, we decided to pick some more cherries to share it.

SHARING IS CARING

It will be a waste if we dont eat it... It is ripe and it will only last for another week at the max. We collected quite a lot... perhaps, 5 kilos of cherries!!! hehehhe...

See how lovely and ripe it is... it was perfect.. not too ripe and it still has a crunch as you bite into it... cruchy and juicy. Perfect! Johan chose a perfect tree to climb on.. However, before the right tree, we tried a few others but they had lots of thorns around them.. there were lots of jumping and reaching out for those cherries...

Apart from Cherries, there were some lovely insects posing just for me to take a photo of.. They didnt even move.. nice.. again I love the colour contrast..


Say CHEESE insects... Thanks for staying still.. hmm, perhaps they were dead.. :) Nah! They flew off after I took the shot.

The colours of spring

After Winter... Spring...

the weather gets warmer, the sun shining, the trees and plants are coming alive... the birds are singing and insects are buzzing around...


People are in better moods and are out and about... It is really pleasant to be in this season, spring...


In fact it has been spring since the 21st of March.... so these colours you see below are changing and have changed cos SUMMER is on its way!!! Yes, this blog is long overdue.... :)


BEAUTIFUL COLOURS ALL AROUND.... Enjoy


This is a tree just outside our apartment, and the next 8 shots below are the changes of the same tree..... it is amazing at how fast the leaves starts coming out and changes its form and colour... It was beautiful to watch each day to see what is happening to this living thing...















most of the grassy areas are covered with all these little yellow and white flowers.. I am lousy with names of the flowers, perhaps I should look it up... :) but there are so pretty to see.

daisies?????



spot that white bit next to this yellow plant... that's the MOON ....



this tree is one that I pass by quite often cos it is the way to do my grocery shopping... the shots below are from this same tree... I think it is a cherry blossom cos yesterday when I walked pass it, these beautiful flowers are no longer there but fruits that do look like cherries.... BUT then again I THINK I could be wrong too.. so I am not too sure... :)













love the contrast of these plants next to each other







No, this is not my garden.. I wish :)

tulips?

they come in all sorts of colours...















There you go, a blog after 3 months of silence... there are lots more photos of flowers but I think this will do for this post. Perhaps I will upload it one day.. maybe not.. will see.
