Title: Cherry blossoms and Plymouth in D?sseldorf
Post by: Go Fleiter on April 12, 2011, 03:55:04 PM
This sunday, I took my daughter, living a few blocks from me, to let her choose a couple of my garden tools.
We drove through Salier Street, which I cross 2 times every day on  route to my practice by bycicle, Friday  was last time.
In these 2 Days, the cherry blossoms came out on Salierstr.
However having trouble with my handy, we succeeded in making a couple of shots.
Today (tuesday) I found all the street filled with cherry leaves because a one heavy rain this noon.
Glad I got the foto, blossoms stay for only ~3 weeks, if not too many heavy rains come down.

The Cherries go for 150 m , than comes a childrens playground, than the balance of Salierstr (green trees)., than the river bank.
At the end of the horizon between the tree rows You may see the white spot of downtown Burgplatz buildings, across the river Rhine.

I love looking Your sites on Goggle earth , if You like too: my coordinates
