The 'Half-Way Day' and the Walk To Graz University


 Saturday the 12th of April was the midpoint of my stay in Austria and time is going too fast as I knew it would! It was a lovely, still overcast day so we decided to walk to Alex's university which happens to be via a large and beautiful central park.  One thing that is quite common here is to see wooden birdhouses in trees... they seem to be everywhere.




 I made Alex pose beside this avenue of trees... I can almost hear him muttering "...oh the things I do" ;)
A church we passed along the way... and everything seems to be about to burst into flower.

 Even the weeds in the lawns are pretty. 
 The main hall of Graz University.  We went inside to see if the ballroom was open but being a weekend it wasn't... still the interior was just as impressive.



 More tulips which are absolutely everywhere.  And I snuck Alex into the edge of this one as he waited patiently :)


 Now look at that word in German will you?  Sheesh! Hardly space to take a breath!

 And all about 10 mins walk from the apartment.
