my first spring.


i am headed back to sunnier climates (or at least what i hope will be sunnier as it was quite cold here today), but before i hopefully board a plane to california, barring any further ash-pocolypse, i wanted to share some photos of my first spring.

the parks in london are impeccable. daffodils and tulips spring right out of the ground, and regent's park is designed like the queen's garden, i'm guessing because it probably actually was the queen's garden at some point, but it's just gorgeous. the thing about the weather here is while everyone says it's drab and gloomy (and don't get me wrong - it can be), when the sun comes out the whole city glows. the skies are bluer, the sun yellower, the trees greener, and you just appreciate it all so much more.

a few photos i snapped -

park near where i work. took this on my walk to the bus.


regent's park tulips.






if anyone ever considers coming to visit, i highly recommend spring. it's just amazing.

see everyone on another continent!
