Vienna neighbourhood in early Summer heat 初夏のウィーンの街角

Today is the public holiday “Fronleichnam” (Feast of body of Christ). Almost all the shops are closed and very few people are out on the streets. I went for a short walk but what a heat! Early evening some short showers came down and then it cooled down a little. I feel Summer’s approaching aura already.

 今日は聖体節の祭日です。ほとんど全てのお店がお休みで、街は人通りもまばらです。少し散歩に出掛けましたが、なんという暑さ!夕方、弱い雷雨が通り過ぎ、その後、涼しくなりました。じきに来るであろう本格的な夏の到来を感じます。

Colours of flowers are radiant under strong sunshine.
強い陽の光の下、草花の色が燃えるように輝いています
