The colours of SPRING in London

It is finally spring! The trees and flowers are showing it. The daffodils have finally bloomed. [And those open top tourist buses like the Big Bus is FULL of tourists!!!]

This year, we have both the cherry and the plum cherry blossiming at the same time! Seas of white and pink flowers would have been the sight, if only the plant more of these trees. It must be soo soo sooo beautiful in Japan now. Here in London, you have a cherry or sakura tree here and there, although there are rows in Oxford street. Too bad the plum cherry trees in Oxford street are still rather juvenile.


This tree is in south kensington park, near the Broad Walk. I wish they have a row of trees like these. It is just so surreal, the beautiful pink flowers.Those home sick Japanese must have visited the tree, as I see red and white ribbons tied to the branches.









The grounds are now coloured with vibrant spring flowers. We love these bluish and purplish flowers.

The daffodils are just so beautiful, and it is really a natures's wonder.
In a field of daffodils, all would open up facing the same directions.

Some are orange, some are yellow and some are whitish. It is especially beautiful when it is in the
sea of shorter purplish flowers.

I go to enjoy al l these before Easter; after which throngs of tourists will camp in the parks, and teh Bayswater area would be abuzz with tourists. There are just so many tourists staying there! Those lucky few would probably stay in Hilton and the likes, with a prized view of the parks.
