Ready for your arrival Spring!

Over the weekend and today, the weather in Budapest was just amazing!  After the gloomy, foggy, cold days, the sun started to shine, the temperature went up, and it made all the difference!

My plants in my room started to get greener, the people started to smile and walk more, the benches on the bank of the Duna river became filled with people, gazing the castle on the other side, letting the sun caress their faces.  Though I was working over the night on Saturday and Sunday, I took the effort and did not sleep during the whole day, instead I walked a lot!  On Saturday, after coffee, and quick visit to a second hand shop, we made a long walk with a precious friend of mine, we talked, planned some future trips and enjoyed what the day had to offer..we went to the Margit island, sat there for a while, watched the people passing by, bathed in the sun, smelled the fragrance of the spring, laughed a lot and filled ourselves up with energy!  Hmmm...afte all the walk though I had a lot of difficulties staying awake at night in the office :(

On Sunday before work, in the evening I visited B, spent some time before her flat on the hill, where the castle is, gazed at the lights of the Buda hills, and the narrow sickle (reaping hook?) of the moon...and felt so much filled with peace..I was not cold, though I only had a thin coat on, the air was filled with promises, happiness, and scent of the fairies..I looked down on the old streets meandering under the castle, looked through some windows, saw the nice blue and yellow walls of a living room, then I turned my head up, and recognized Draco just above me, no clouds covered the sky so I could search for the star signs a bit...I felt like I am in heaven...in that moment all joy and feeling of loving everything flooded my heart and I was just smiling to myself...there was noone around to share it with, but the feeling lasted and so I gave a big hug to my friend after I entered her flat.

Today again I went for a nice walk with another friend (Z) and it was gorgeous..now the sun is not only providing the light, like it did over the winter (well it's still winter...) but we could feel it's heat!  We were so happy to be outside, to be so free, so joyous!  I think...we deserved this perfect day!
