Without leaving Bangkok, I also enjoyed springtime scenery in Europe through photos sent to me by another friend. Prunus trees and shrubs blanketed by flowers, and rhododendrons, irises, tulips, daisies, daffodils, lavenders and countless other species of plants in bloom in private gardens and public parks, along streets, and on mountainsides and fields, literally took my breath away.
