  1. Liebe Maria, hast du schon Sehnsucht nach Herbstlaub?
    Jetzt kann es wirklich nicht mehr lange dauern, bis der Frühling kommt - das Jahr wird kurz!

  8. Hi Maria, alle Rechte?

    Wie lange ...

    Ich mochte die Fotos. Ich sehe, dass die Kälte ist die Chance für die Blumen. Frühjahr kam.

  11. Ach beautiful pictures. The first one is amazing. Not often does one see that. Pansies growing in the snow. Pansies are hardy though. Autumn leaves are so beautiful but I don't quite long for them yet.

  28. Hi Maria!
    Thank you for coming here when you're so busy!
    If we could see each other easily, I want you to see Japanese cherry blossoms.
    They're so beautiful. and many people enjoy talking, eating and driking
    under cherry blossoms.
    By the way Aren't you catching cold? because you must be tired.
    I can't imagine how you organize a conference for 130 persons!
    It's sooooooooooooooo hard!
    I hope you have time for yourself even for few hours!
    Have a good week, Maria!!!
