What a lovely sunny week, topped with a long lazy weekend! I took a day off on monday (like everybody else) and will be back at work next wednesday. Pity the temperature dropped last night! Now it's back to normal April in Berlin, around 16 degrees, but still sunny. Perfect to go to Werder to enjoy the fruit blossom festival. Or take a walk around one of the many lakes, Wannsee or Müggelsee. Maybe a trip by boat to Little Venice?
No chance to go swimming: the open air pools opened up yesterday, just in time for the last hot day. I would freeze in the water and at the beach now. And no bikini either, since I had done some proper spring cleaning and throwing away in March.
Yesterday I did my favourite saturday walks around town, everybody was outside on the sidewalks sitting in front of the cafes and restaurants. Musicians were playing everywhere, almost like on June 21st, people listening and swinging to the rhythm, smiling to each other.
Winterfeldt market sold summer flowers (!), strawberries and the delicious asparagus from Beelitz. The harvest began three weeks early, with the warm winter and spring we had this year. The official first day of harvesting this lovely vegetable is April 19th.
No vegetables for me this time, I had falafel at Habibi, but I bought a bunch of flowers that are filling the air of my flat with their beautiful scent.
Time to get ready and going now, to make the most of this long sunny day! :)
