My friend Sher and I had lots of catching up to do! We took a long leisurely stroll around Letna Park, famous for it's beer gardens and view of the Vltava. Why don't you join us for awhile? It's lovely!
Everything was joyously, exuberantly in bloom
The start of our walk - this regal boulevard
All this pond needs is koi
The leaves on these tulips are stunning with their variations
An apple tree awaits May 1st
Can't you just smell them?
A first fabulous view of the Vltava with lilacs
Is this pretty enough for you?
Two of my favorite flowers: pansies and tulips
The last of the forsythia
These beautiful blossoms adorned entire trees. I nicknamed them peppermint popcorn.
See Smell Enjoy
The Charles Bridge and another from Letna Park
Local landmarks: the 1970s Hotel Intercontinental The Church of the House of Tyn in Old Town Square National Museum Vysherad Cathedral
Are you feeling more peace?
The entire riverbank is a riot of lilacs
I hope this helps you "slow down and smell the flowers."

I loved sharing your walk with you! These pictures are beautiful!
I'm an American expatriate bursting with enthusiasm to GET OUT AND EXPERIENCE OUR GLOBE!
Here's what the Wall Street Journal said about my blog:
"EMPTY NEST EXPAT saw her youngest daughter leaving for college as the opening of a window of opportunity to see the world—one that might only last for a decade or so before her kids start their own families.
Parents looking for inspiration to help them see their empty nest as a ticket to pursue new dreams would do well to start here...Her blog makes a fun read for anyone looking for reassurance that change can be a wonderful thing..."
The London Telegraph said "Empty Nest Expat is one of the top places to go for expat advice and resources."
Daily Sabah newspaper in Istanbul named 'Empty Nest Expat' an Ultimate Expat Blog in Turkey!
