Cape Town kind of has two seasons - warm or wet. What I love about England is that you can really feel and see the change in season to spring. It sort of starts bubbling - you spot the shoots of daffodils in the odd garden and when you walk through a park, as you leave work the sky is still light, when you wake up in the morning the sun is getting up to. Then all of a sudden London is buzzing - everyone feels it and they are out and enjoying the light (pretending it is warmer then it probably is) but definitely making the most of it. And the best part is summer is around the corner and warmth really will come this year.<br /><br />p.s. lovely pillowMichellehttp://iripple.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1576848548483115702.post-35848845348962496612011-03-22T12:29:35.058-07:002011-03-22T12:29:35.058-07:00Oh the best thing is the light and putting on a li...Oh the best thing is the light and putting on a lighter jacket and nicer shoes!

Bright green grass and a fresh new smell in the air. Bird song late into the evening echoing off the tenements in our street. People out and about, heads up, not laden with woolies and breathing in the fresh new air. Spring is tiny wee flowers everywhere chatting and cheering as you walk to work.
