Flower Power
The whole world can worry about global warming, here in Canada we enjoy it (as long as it doesn’t melt our piece of ice up there). We should be seeing red leaves and have chilly weather on the way, but flowers are blooming everywhere. Go figure!

Hey Zhu!
You are right: such beautiful flowers!!!
Well, I must confess one thing (bring your ear closer): I, too, am enjoying this global warming thing *shiuuuu*! In Portugal, today is 28ºC — how great is that?
Cheers
Zhu it looks so beautiful and warm and not at all like here. Today it has been windy and raining and cold!
Thanks for some snapshots of an Indian summer
Go-go Flower Rangers!
Deadpoolite : I wouldn’t even dare to take you out of my blogroll. We all know about Greek revenge stories ! Seriously…!
Jess : thanks !
Webmiztris : 80 degrees ? Wow, that must be hot ! Oh wait a sec… you mean Fahrenheits, right ?
Silverneurotic : well, don’t forget Canada is also cold and snow… a lot of both probably coming soon !
Dumdad : Thank you ! Means a lot to me — I struggled with English at first, it’s never easy to write in another language… but I’m trying and it’s much easier now !
Moving to WordPress… well, Blogger is great to start a blog, but I wanted to have my own domain (vain me !) and I was interested in the other side of blogging, the codding. WP also offers a lot of flexibility, I can tweak my blog as I want ! So I made the move.
WP.com isn’t that good, I’d recommend Blogger. But self-hosted WordPress is pretty good
Max : I didn’t know it was hot in Europe too ! My parents keeps on complaining about the weather !
Lis : ah, a stereotype of English weather !
Itelli : Flower power, I’m telling ya !
