Spring has sprung... also on this bicycle. I recently saw it twice in my neighbourhood - in different locations. So it's not only there for decoration, but also used for getting around. I would love to know who is its owner.

If you live in Vienna, love to garden but don't have a garden of your own, you can become a "tree patron" which means that you are officially allowed to transform a tree pit in your own small garden - you just have to apply at the competent area renewal office. I think this is a very good idea, the city gets more green without spending money and hobby gardeners get a "playground". I hope the dogs and human passersby respect these little gardens...
"Stretching his hand up to reach the stars, too often man forgets the flowers at his feet." - Jeremy Bentham

"The breath of flowers is far sweeter in the air than in the hand." - Sir Francis Bacon

Today this blog turns 9!! I can't believe how time has flown by! To be honest it's sometimes a little stressful to keep the blog up and to publish a photo in due time, but so far I'm not ready to quit. When I published my first blog entry I didn't have any idea of how I could manage to take enough photos to "fill" a whole year, but you just have to open your eyes and always have the camera (or smartphone) with you. Thank you for your support by visiting my blog and commenting on the photos! I'm looking forward to sharing more photos of Vienna with you!
