I’m in a lousy mood for no reason, so I’m trying to focus on the positives of this week.
First off was a lovely walk with Pippo last Sunday. While out and about, I saw this cool bit of graffiti.

On Wednesday, I got to meet up with A Georgia Peach and catch up and just generally have a lovely time while sitting on the terras at the Vismarkt on the Oudegracht.

On the way home, I picked up some more purple tulips to cheer things up. Gotta love getting four bunches for only €5!

And finally, to go along with the beautiful blue skies and spring weather, there were some really pretty cloud patterns this week.

It was a lovely day to have a drink! We will have to do it again soon!
Love the graffiti. I used to have one of those joypads back in the 70′s I think! They were a real nightmare to operate!
I also wanted to get some tulips the other day from my local florist but apparently they are hard to get..well, in my area anyway. I wanted to paint them.
Excellent graffiti!
The last three photos…*sigh*.
Now I want a relaxing drink, too.
The changing of the seasons will do that to you. Thanks for the reminder that we all really do need to focus on the positives.
Thank the universe for holland and it’s flowers!
Nothing better to put you in a good mood than sitting on a terras with that view of the Oudegracht!
This shows how my brain works. Moments ago while reading A Georgia Peach I realized she lives in Utrecht too and wondered if you two knew each other… now I know
Between the wide array of choices for an outdoor cafe and inexpensive, gorgeous flowers year round, you can’t beat the Netherlands. Thanks for sharing your ‘focus on the positive’.
Wow, that means I could have seen you sitting from Beirut! Check this out http://www.noah-design.nl/utrecht/webcam

Oh wow! Quiet on a Sunday morning, but I’m sure there’s plenty to see on a good day!
