I like visiting flower shops in different countries. You can know the fashion of flowers in each countries.
And what I found out is “hydrangea” is in the middle of summer flower in Europe. For Japanese people “hydrangea” is a one of the symbol of rainy season. Normally the rainy season in Japan is between beginning of June and middle of July.
And I think lots of Japanese people think “hydrangea” in the rain looks more beautiful and its color stands out more. But here you can see “hydrangea” under the sunlight and it’s shining more. Just a flower but this overturned my fixed idea of “hydrangea” in a good way. And it’s really fresh for me.
From now on I also want to notice tiny things and train my sensitivity.
I started this morning with Melange coffee which is traditional coffee in Austria. It was more delicious than I expected. I don’t know about coffee very much so I can’t tell you what is different from any other coffee. But my tongue felt it. First we visited Schloss Schoenbrunn. Schoenbrunn means “beautiful spring”. It is worthy of its name. And it has a beautiful big garden. We enjoyed taking a walk and luckily we saw many squirrels. You can’t touch them but quite they are get used to people.
In the same area there was a park for children. Children can enjoy mazes and zoo and so on. We are old enough but we like being childish. So we played a lot here!! I can say Wien is very clean city compare to other European cities and people are very friendly and they work hard and efficiently.
I’m soo happy to be here!
