Spring has Sprung
'
Spring in Moldova is a gorgeous, and fickle, season. Everything turns from brown, to green, a very alive shade of green. The trees start to blossom, especially the cherry trees - whose white petals cover the ground and look reminiscently like snow. People start to come out of their houses, start to de-thaw, start to dress in less than 5 layers of clothing-- putting out their rugs and blankets under the sun. I missed experiencing this time of year in 2007, becuase I was busy being sick in Washington, DC. While yellow characterizes the summer here (fields of wildflowers, rows and rows of sunflowers); green and gray characterize the spring. The vibrant green contrasts with the ever changing and stormy April skies. Hope that comes out in these pictures, some of my favorites I've taken this spring.
