While we were travelling to the coast last week, I got very excited to see snowdrops. Lots and lots of lovely little white blooms everywhere along the road side, looking all pretty and fresh. I kept spotting some and saying ...snowdrops, more snowdrops...look lots over there.... etc, which resulted in J rolling his eyes at me and declaring it was like having a 3 year old in the car with him. I can't help it if I get giddy at the thought of Spring. Especially this year because it is our first year of having the caravan in springtime and it has been so lovely to see the changing seasons throughout last year. We normally only go the the beach during summer so it has been a delight to experience Autumn and Winter there (who knew it could be so fantastic?), see the surrounding trees without leaves, frost, the snow and now the clean crisp mornings when everything looks bare, waiting for new buds to appear.
It was a lovely bright, sunny and suprisingly mild day on Sunday. After a lovely pub lunch in Bridlington, we walked along the beach.
So lovely...the beach and snowdrops! I'd love a little of both! No signs of spring yet here in southern Norway...Happy week :o)

Beautiful pictures - thanks so much for sharing. I've seen some snowdrops this week too - and the daffodils are in bud too! It's such a hopeful sign isn't it? x

Isn't it great to have Spring weather, makes you feel so much more energetic. And perfectly timed for half-term. Have a lovely week.
