September 1st

Turns out there is a September 1st also in Brussels - kids return to school. But all of them have forgotten one thing - FLOWERS!!! That is one of the great things when you live in Latvia - on September 1st the streets are filled with kids carrying all kinds of autumn flowers… A sigh…

But here in Brussels this turn of the calendar page seems to have awoke the city to life again. My walk to work no longer is solitary. From today there once again are kids with huge backpacks, people in bright vests stopping the traffic at pedestrian crossings and loads of cars to stop. Now once again Brussels feels almost like a city… ;-))
