At my Macanese second/third cousins' place on Easter Sunday, in Lever, a town around Vila Nova de Gaia area in Portugal. After a long dry winter, spring is back in town with showers, a rainbow here and there... still sunny most of the time. Just the saturday before was rainy, so Easter sunday turned out to be a lovely sunny spring day, and I took the chance to walk around the garden I haven't been to since Christmas. They say "Em Abril, aguas mil", literally "In April, waters thousands", which is the Portuguese equivalent to "April showers brings May flowers". By the way, I should thank everyone who commented on my other photos and gave constructive advice, all the words were really precious though I have been writing on my final project towards my degree and haven't left any thank you note for each one right away. PS: I do realise the 2 petals in the upper left came out a bit blurry.
