First Spring Pics

Don't get confused by the Belgian weather these days... It's still spring. Time to leave hibernation and to enjoy the revival of nature in the beautiful Park of Tervuren. I'd like to translate a tweet I've read yesterday in Dutch @kanhetnogkorter:

Everything is in bloom and enjoyable in 3D thanks to free software from (Mother) Nature

Beautiful colors

Family trip

Is there something wrong with the neck?

Into the woods to enjoy this most spectacular wild flower display

A carpet of Bluebells

It's almost a year now; but great pics. I love Spring - its my favorite season. It gives you lot of freshness and energy- the pictures itself reveal it.

Zinneke? Never heard of it!

By using this term to describe themselves, Brusselers celebrate their multicultural background and ethnic diversity.

In our dialect, a zinneke is a mongrel dog and by extension, a person of mixed ethnic origin, just like the Brussels dialect itself which is a mixture of French and Flemish with influences from Spanish.(From the time when the Low Countries were under Spanish rule)

Brussels build up around a river called the Senne (FR)/Zenne (NL). Some say the name "zinneke" was used to refer to the dogs that roamed around near the river, others that it refers to the fact that they deserved to be thrown into the river.
