What to do on a sunny day with curfews and restrictions?
You walk your dog and take pictures!
Luckily the weather got nice lately.
Since two days we are finally in the temperatures that you can call spring. The trees are blossoming and it gets green around you.
I drove a little further out today, to find a nice little spot to walk Joy. I parked near an alley of cherry trees and started walking.
The earthy smell of the damp ground made me feel like vacationing.
The sun was shining warm and I dreamed myself to Italy.
The trees were humming a wonderful song of life, all kinds of insects were feeding on the cherry blossoms.
The smell of summer was in the air.
Past fields I looked into the distance.
A vision that carried me further to Italy.
I imagined Lake Garda in the distance. The place that I felt home, a certain place that I was drawn too.
I was quickly torn out of my daydreams when Joy thirsted for water.
Good mom I am I carry a 5l canister of water around whenever it gets warm outside.
Having a Bulldog you better be prepared as they are prone to over-heating quickly.
Joy needs like 1l water per km. Luckily he's a bottle drinker so I can just have him drink from the canister.
Looks too cute, but no evidence. Y'all have to wait until José is back to see it.
The sun was shining bright in the blue sky.
What a wonderful day.
We kept walking further towards a rapeseed field.
The look in the distance gave me that feeling of being free, no worries, no pressure, no obligation, just being.
I was alone, no one bothering me. No one ripping me out of my daydreams.
Close to the field I found this little spot to rest.
A bench like in the old days. Sitting down next to stacked wood and blossoming apple trees, looking in the distance.
It felt like at my grandpas place.
The warmth, the smell, the sounds.
It was quiet, just the wind, the birds, humming insects, me, and Joy who crushed the silence while panting.
I told him to find some shade, so he did.
Hanging out at that place for quite a while I discovered little photographic motives. Daisies are always worth a shot.
I will mention my Huawei P30 Pro here with whom I took all the pics, like in any other post of mine lol.
In my daydream I was on vacation and didn't wanted to go back.
I wanted to stay in Italy, with a glass of red wine, good food and nice Italian people.
But after a while it was time to leave my little spot and to walk back towards German reality.
Not without discovering a cool blueish flower though.
Handsome dog hu?
The way back was long and the only plane in the sky had me feel like in "28 days later".
You know, the movie where this guy wakes up after a virus had ruined society and he is trying to survive the zombies that got infected with the virus, being super aggressive.
Comment if you have seen the movie ;).
Walking there was nice though, not a single person crossed my way that day.
In the distance I could see the alley of cherry trees already.
Close to the end I captured the little dandelions you see.
Every little parachute a daydream that is blown in the wind.
After my philosophical outbreak above this is it now. I hope you liked following me around.
Till next time :).
