Here are five different ways to spend time during a springtime visit to Germany, some ideas to add to the historic road and river tours and visits to castles, palaces, and of course the Brandenburg Gate if you happen to be in Berlin.



Five Ways to Enjoy A Springtime in Germany

Hey Francine,
I am not in Berlin but yeah I love spring seasons, it brings with itself so many sweet memories of our childhood, and I liked the ways you shared with us, Thanks.

Hi Kaycee, Thanks so much for your post���.yes I do agree with you, the traditions around springtime do seem to bring back memories for all of us.

Don�t know about what rings the bells with you but for me it is always the spring flowers, the wild ones that grow every where and the yellow of daffodils in gardens and parks. Always fill the home with them, in a way it says winter is over, which is illogical because I love snow and everything that goes with it���..but somehow!

Can remember seeing a forest floor carpeted in Bluebells in England once, have never forgotten it because it was such an impressive sight and their beautiful scent unlike anything else, but even though I bought masses of bluebell bulbs from reputable UK sources, they are a protected species by now, over the years just could not get them to grow in Germany, although it is certainly not through lack of care and trying.

Do you come from Germany or have you ever visited the country?
