Wednesday Spring Walk, lots of sunshine and blue skies

reff-01.jpg

Spring is upon us! Yesterday afternoon I came out of the house to get some bread, and I saw several watering machines on my small street. The machines were moving one after another, washing sand and snow off the tarmac. A crew of janitors laboured over the difficult areas. The clean, washed street shone and reflected the sun.

In spring it is difficult to think and act rationally. The bright sun washes away the winter shadows, and at the same time a decade, you feel younger and more reckless, and want to do something silly, but nice. There is no green grass or leaves on the trees yet, but if you touch the trunk of a tree with your hand, you can feel that it has already awakened from its winter hibernation.

While you are looking out the window, it seems that it is time to take out a light coat from the wardrobe and put your down jacket away for winter storage. But there's really no rush. There is an unmistakable omen: if you put your down jacket away to wash (or take it to the dry cleaner), it will immediately snow. Besides, it's not as warm as it looks, it's only +2°C or 3°C outside. If you do wear a light coat for a walk, you'll regret it at the first gust of wind.

Walking these days is spontaneous and hectic. It seems that you are going to the shop or strictly business, but suddenly you find yourself on the canal embankment and admire the smooth curves of the pedestrian bridge. Four lions hold this bridge in place, and these huge cats are full of restrained dignity and self-awareness. Afterwards, you'll be walking along, forgetting all your business - it's too good a day to stay at home!

Hello dear friend @tatdt good morning
What an incredible place you have chosen for this spring walk, I am in love with the architecture of the place and the different styles of the building facades.
Without a doubt it has been a beautiful day, a real shame to stay home
Have a happy Wednesday day

Hey awesome!

I was looking through the neat pictures, architecture and perspectives wondering where this is. Russia? Totally cool! Seems to be a lack of people but you are creeping toward spring like we are here in Canada.

It IS #wednesdaywalk time isn't it? I have to get out and have a walk then.

The #wednesdaywalk is always a great chance for a walk!

We're having an early spring this year, there's hardly any snow left in the city. But there's no guarantee there won't be another snowfall the other day, of course:) Thanks so much!

I was really happy when I saw that the street was being washed! All that sand they sprinkle on the ice in the winter doesn't go away on its own, but now the street will be clean and that's just great! Thank you so much!

I really like to see the city clean. And it's true that you have to take into account every omen hahaha... don't save the down coat for the harsh winter, just hang it up and do something silly. It will be fun.

Your photos 👌

При этом мне то, чтобы слишком тепло - чуть выше нуля. Но оттепель длительная, и в городе снега почти не осталось. Хотя в парках лежит, конечно!
