Cherry blossoms & spring

Marsha showed me the Stockholm public transport website, something like SBS transit in Singapore. They change the picture on the main page according to the season and weather. Today, it showed the gorgeously blooming candy floss-like cherry trees, lining up our dear Kungstragården. 

It is Valborg today, the day that signifies the arrival of spring and the departure of everything dark and evil. One year ago, we were at Uppsala for the grand celebration in the biggest student city in Sweden. Champagne sprayed here and there, drenching every passer-by in laughter. People were dancing and singing, so were we. The city was enveloped in a misty joyful smell of beer. 

We were celebrating spring, we were celebrating the warmth. But most of all, we were celebrating our youth.

Let the blossoms bloom and let the fragrance travel through the cool air...
