It is only the last week of February-but due to a pretty mild winter with very little snow in the city - spring has come much earlier than expected. The shrubs and brushes are pushing out their green buds and the tulips and crocuses are poking up everywhere! It's fun to see where they choose to stick their heads out!
The weather has been superb so far! This past Sunday we experienced 18 degrees celcius which is about 65 degrees farenheit!
Carlo and I dug the bikes up from the basement, got the tires pumped up and set off for the next beergarden. :-) There is a really nice park close to where we live, which houses a large group of ornamental deer. The benches and tables are located right next to the fence and you can watch the animals walk right by you.
As in any typical beergarden you are asked to buy the drinks at the "bar" (it's more like a beer booth) but, on the other hand, you are encouraged to bring a sacked lunch or dinner. (Which equals out the high beer prices) Of course there are kiosks with lots of food - enticing you with smells of french fries, bratwurst, spare-ribs and smoked fish on a stick! Yes, even in Munich you can buy things on a stick. If you've ever been to a state-fair...the feeling is somewhat similar. :-)
We had a great time, yet no camera was present. Therefore just a few pics of my latest planting ambitions on our balcony.
Happy spring y'all!

Such a cheerful planting display!!! Just like you, sweetie! :) I love it! Very spring-y... I love primulas, I planted some up in a pot outside our front door but I don't think they'll last as long here in the California-heat. Enjoy it while it lasts, eh??! :)
