Un mese nelle mie foto:
Dopo il sole ostinato di Marzo, Aprile ha portato nel nord Italia piogge copiose di cui la natura sentiva il bisogno. Le giornate sono state comunque miti, soprattutto nel periodo pasquale verso la fine del mese.
Ricordo un tradizionale proverbio contadino che la mia mamma dice sempre: “Aprile, Apriletto…ogni giorno un goccetto”. Tutto regolare, quindi.
In Finlandia questa fine mese è stata caratterizzata da una piacevole ondatina di calore che ha fatto sciogliere l’ultima neve e nascere i primi crocus e anemoni selvatici. Le temperature pomeridiane hanno sfiorato e in qualche caso oltrepassato i 20 gradi! Sono sicura che gli amici finlandesi se la sono goduta! 😉
Auguro un Felice Primo Maggio a tutti!
A month in my photos:
After the stubborn sunny weather in March, without a drop of rain, April brought up some relieving spring precipitations to the north of Italy. It was needed so urgently. Days were anyway mild in temperature, especially the Easter weekend and the end of month.
I remember a proverb which my mother always says: “Aprile, Apriletto…ogni giorno un goccetto”; roughly: “April, April… a little drop every day“. It means that this month is traditionally generous in rainfalls.
On the contrary, in south Finland in this second part of month we have experienced a pleasant warm wave which allowed sunny days, pleasant temperatures until 20C (and sometimes more) in the afternoon, the melting of the remaining snow and the blooming of crocuses, anemones and other spring flowers. I believe my Finnish friends have enjoyed it! 😉
I wish a Happy May Day to everyone!

Hello, lovely images and mosaic. It is hard to believe May is almost here. We say April showers bring May flowers. We had a lot of rain in April. Enjoy your day and week ahead.
