A notable spring evening..

Finally the spring, or maybe summer even, has arrived to Budapest...Today, after work, and Russian class I thought I will walk home alone, but to my pleasure, I was accompanied by my friend Zs.  She had yoga class, and we decided, that we will go together along the river until we reach the Arpad bridge - that is where her class is.  Unfortunately - or rather, fortunately for me - we were walking too slow, and she would not have been able to get there on time, so we thought, we'll buy a beer, and sit down by the river, chat some, and enjoy the mild spring breeze.  We found a nice, not so noisy spot, and sat there, until the night covered us with its velvety dark blanket.  Soon, the stars started to appear one by one, and we tried to identify the signs, we knew.  We talked about nature, memories of home, our dogs, trips...

It felt like the life is flowing back to me...I was sitting there, in my pink shirt, and pink and black tie, jeans and tennis shoes...the wind was messing with my hair, I had a beer in one hand, and a cigarette in the other...in front of me the gentle waves of the river, some ducks swiftly floating by, and a beautiful view of old Budapest.  The moon, the mysterious moon was playing hide and seek behind the clouds, then gained authority, and outshined its star fellows.  I laid back, and let myself be fascinated by the setting around me.  I've missed this during the long winter, when the days were cold, the sun set so soon...but now that the nature is dressing into green again, that the flowers are blooming, and there is a sort of bubbling of life all around I feel much eased, and cheerful.


I thought I'd describe the feeling more...in a detailed version, but I can hardly keep my eyes open - maybe due to the long walk - so I head to bed instead...good night world, welcome spring!
