Hello hello!



Happy May!  I hope your month has started well.  Here are a few more photos of my trip.  The top photo is the maypole in Munich. 


This little guy reminds me of myself lately.  :0)  A little frustrated!  I think I'm trying to go in too many directions at once.


I've noticed that I'm really drawn to spirals of any kind.  This was the staircase at the old hotel I stayed in, located about an hour East of Berlin.  The hotel is so charming, and is almost completely restored to its pre-East German beauty.


I also adore stained glass windows! These were in the stairway of the hotel.  Aren't they gorgeous?

 

I loved this statue, too.  It is located in front of a school, and it looks like lots of kids have sat on her lap, doesn't it?



I must admit, when I first came back home, I moped around a bit, because there were so few signs of spring here.  There were so many flowers and leaves sprouting everywhere in Germany already.  But then I realized it was really a blessing, because I'd get to experience spring, my favorite season, twice this year!  I know I won't have that chance very often.

All things seem possible in May."
