Anyone living in my part of the world may have been shocked to see a huge blazing ball of fire just hanging motionless in the sky today. Don't worry people, it's perfectly normal. It's called ....just a second please.., ah yes, here it is...it's called the Sun and apparently it's a natural phenomena. Ok, so I'm being silly, but you have to admit it's been a long winter and today was the first truly spring-like day we've had this year in Flanders. A sunny day certainly warms the cockles of your heart.It's strange because 10 years ago I couldn't care less what the weather was like. I got up, I did stuff and then I went to bed. What the weather did whilst I was doing stuff didn't matter to me. I went for a walk earlier and it felt so good to have the sun on my face. You start to notice things when the weather is nice, Spring flowers such as Crocuses on peoples lawns, birds gathering sticks and things to build their nests. I even smiled at people, although after a few attempts I realised that I was worrying people because my smile is not unlike Moe's from the Simpsons! It doesn't belong on my face...
I spent 30 minutes looking for a photo of the Sun on google and suddenly came up with the bright idea to take my own so the photo that accompanies this post is real Belgian sun, taken from the balconey of my appartment, about an hour ago. Who needs a webcam!
Gratz on your happy day, Mike. The sun has been shining here to for a couple of days now. I can only agree, life becomes so much easier with some light from the sun. I can hardly wait until my vacation in US. I hope i will get alot of sun there. (Nice picture)
