Snow to Spring to Summer in Slovenia

Seems like it was only yesterday we still had snow. How quickly it moves to spring - everything turns a vivid green - and now it is summer. It is remarkable how the spring flowers can appear so suddenly after months of cold snowy weather and appear they do in profusion.

In fact we have a spring flower festival here in Bled in May. I can see why.

So, yes, it is technically still spring. Yet the max/min temperatures are now 26/19 deg (that's 19deg at night!). So it feels like summer. Also means we have had some terrific thunderstorms - see tonights photo - taken from our balcony - of a classic thunder cloud, probably over Ljubljana, would be my guess.

So nice to see the seasons changing with such great definition. Lovely.
