Spring Hath Arrived Already
Posted by I.A.M. in CANADA, Canada for Foreigners, NEWS, Personal, VancouverHaving proved last month during the Winter Olympics that February around here is as unpredictable as anywhere else in the world (Calgary also had to truck-in snow in 1988), let us put to rest the stereotype that Canada is nought but wind-swept tundra with today’s photos, preceded by a topical quotation from the Bard of Avon:
Daffodils
That come before the swallow dares, and take
The winds of March with beauty.–“The Winter’s Tale” [1610 – 1611]; Act IV, sc iii, 118
