Ascension Day

Today is Ascension Day, a public holiday in Brussels. I find it odd that Good Friday is not a public holiday but Ascension Day is. Anyway, it feels good to spend a day with hubby and be reminded of the significance of this day. This is true for me, that it's only when I'm stopped from all my business that I make the time to sit and ponder over things. I'm grateful for the time to reflect.

The weather has not been the best in Brussels over the last week. Where did the beautiful sunshine and warm weather go? It's been replaced by rain and temperatures in the lower teens. There goes our bike ride for the day..........
