Fragrance of spring is in the air 🌸

This was a long and exhausting day, but productive in every sense. Since early in the morning, I had a meeting (in Benidorm), a rehearsal, lessons, work on a project, as well as a call about a possible additional job that I was contacted for. Energy... that's what is really needed for all this, although I am still under a dose of energy even though my body is crying out for rest hahaha. I just came home recently.

I even fit a two-hour intense walk in between my commitments. I have long wanted to walk by this river again; it has been quite a while since I was there. That is why I deliberately left three hours of my free time before the afternoon lessons and didn't want to have another rehearsal in the meantime. I brought extra sneakers and a T-shirt, ate the lunch I brought along the way, and there I was, in nature. This walk could not be omitted.

When I got there, to the river, the first impression was the smell. The scent of spring! And although the sky was cloudy, and everything was white... it is not snow. All that whiteness in my walk today was brought not by snow, but by the flowering of fruit trees.

Almonds, cherries, and I am not sure exactly what other fruit trees were these. There were different shapes and shades of petals, but it was truly a delight for my eyes and my sense of smell.

A thought came to me... you know that song Love Is In The Air... Well, I had that feeling today, just a bit of a variation: Fragrance of spring is in the air. 🌸

This spring feeling came by surprise actuallly as the winter was quite cold. However, today, while walking here, it was 23 degrees Celsius. I was in a T-shirt. Sweating. 😅 True, as I had a quick pace (on purpose), I am not surprised by it.

What was a bit strange was that I barely met anyone during this walk: one man with a dog, later a German couple and no one else. Just bees, birds, and a few dogs barking from the orchards.

It seems that this Wednesday Walk had to be spent without people around. Probably the purpose of it was to disconnect and to be just surrounded by these flowers. I reminded myself about "not thinking" about anything. No schedules, plans, concerts, music - nothing. And I listened to myself indeed as my focus was there on moving my legs haha, breathing, enjoying the smell of the spring and the white colour of these blooming trees.
