This past week all of these flowers have come up in the grassy areas around Zürich and I couldn't resist taking a few pictures of them. There are yellow, white, and purple flowers that have appeared much like dandelions would do back in the US ... they're probably related somehow but it's not so bad to look at a field with purple, white, and yellow flowers in it even if they are most likely some sort of invasive weed:
We had a fairly mild winter in Switzerland, which was very bad for ski resorts but not so bad for those of us who were tired of walking around on snow and ice by December (okay it snowed a lot in November and December here and then didn't snow again the rest of the winter). So maybe that's why bushes have been blooming here since January. I was nervous for them, thinking it'd get cold and snowy again, but it didn't (or, it hasn't yet, I suppose it still could).
I will leave you with these warm thoughts of Spring while I go off to Bali for 8 days.
