Side Note :

We arrived with snow on the 14th of February, yet we saw the Storks and the cranes return from the South that weekend and on the 17th ; the last day of our stay, spring arrived together with a flock of little birds which I guess were swallows, but I'm not sure about that, as they were in a very large group flying above the trees in the wood where we were walking, which made it hard to observe them because of the branches... and a summery warm spring sun blinding us.

It was a lovely experience though, I will not easy forget... And the most beautiful Valentine ever, organised by Mother Nature.

40/15 cm

Side Note :

I never saw such a beautiful location as home for elderly people. I'm not a fan of homes for elders, but if I could choose, I wouldn't mind to spend the last years of my life in such a lovely surounding, at least if the service is in style as well ;-)
 
Here you can see all the sketches I made in the Czech Republic for now.

Next time I'll post a couple of drawings from my Valentine trip to bad Rehburg (Niedersachsen - Germany) last february.
