Winter at the Danube in Vienna

Finally winter has come to Vienna, 

with extremely cold temperatures and even some snow.

I took a long walk with my dog along the shore of the Danube this afternoon and enjoyed the winter atmosphere.

Water birds had left their foot prints in the snow,

and D'ora followed the decorative patterns on the ice.

What a lovely picture!

We returned home when the sun set.

Have a nice week ahead!

An afternoon walk through Vienna

Nach dem Essen sollst du ruhn, oder 1000 Schritte tun!
After dinner rest a while, after supper walk a mile!
That's what hubby, doggy and I did this afternoon, and we came to some stiller corners of the city.

That's my entry for this week's:

Today's flowers - Peonies

In Vienna's Burggarten, peonies bloom beside chestnut trees and lilac.
It's the most beautiful season of the year now!

Enjoy flowers from all around the globe!

Today's flowers - Messengers of Spring

Kuhschellen/Pasque Flowers/Pulsatilla vulgaris

We found this early spring flower yesterday on our hike through the ridges of the Wienerwald
on the steep hills of Leopoldsberg on a sunny and extremely dry place.

Maybe the flowers have chosen this place also for its lovely view over Vienna and the river Danube?

Enjoy many, many more flowers from all around the world here:
