The beauty of an Algarve Spring
Acacia sweeps the boardwalk
Rock cistus
A scatter of wild flowers
Beautiful bougainvillea
Carob blossom
One for Jude to identify?
An orchid tree in bud
And bursting open, in the water park

It’s well advanced here, Patti. 🙂 🙂 How’s the traveling going? I’m glad I didn’t try to make arrangements because life here got very complicated in the last week or so. Nothing bad, just a little frantic 🙂

Nothing to complain about, Liesbet, other than a bit of a sore head from overindulging at a dance last night 🙂 🙂 A walk in the salt marshes this morning will sort me out. 🙂 Thanks, darllin!

Thanks a lot, Otto. It’s been happening very early this year, after a dry, sunny winter. We shall see what’s ahead. 🙂 🙂
