Almond blossom

It is windy today and the pale pink and white flowers from the almond blossom are dancing in the air.

January is the time of the almond blossom in the Algarve. There is a lovely legend that surrounds it. Like Gilda, I too sometimes miss the snow but what a difference the almond blossom makes.

This representation is by school children from Olhão in the Algarve.
