frost

You see that I can keep promises!
Taraxacum officinale agg. (48°03' N 16°17' E)
So I was out in the frost, early in the mornings. But it is warmer again, not sunshiny though - but windy and rainy and foggy, ugly all in all.

Now tomorrow is our national holiday - Queen's Birthday of Austria, or the 4th of july if you like, or la fête nationale or whatever; and on this day, by ancient tradition (!!), every Austrian who is proud of his country has (!!!) to go on a walk, however short it may be - and good Austrians will make a longer hike of it. I guess that tomorrow many "good" Austrians won't even do that, as nasty as the weather will be; but I of course will, you can trust me there. I'll show proof soon!
