two days of (some) sun


We were lucky enough to get two relatively bright days last weekend. This spring is very cold with flooding rains in our part of the world, probably due to the effects of the Icelandic volcano. We loved it when the eruption gave us several days of clear blue skies unpolluted by airplanes. We hate it when it gives us weeks of cold, wet weather. So, with the little sunshine that we did get, all other plans were put aside and we set out on a trip to Arboretum Šmelcovna near the town of Boskovice, then continued to the town and visited the old Jewish cemetery.












Silky Soul says this picture reminds him of a zen garden.
I think a zen garden is a great place to rest.

  3. This looks like a calm and serene place. When the weather is fine, it is good to spend it outdoors.
