Where is spring?

Today was a sunny day, high at 15 degrees and low at 5 degrees. It was in my weather channel a winter day. I have been wondering for months where the spring is in Seattle, until I spent the day outdoor at Seattle Center, I have found the answer. It IS spring, and it HAS been spring since mid March, when trees start to wear a touch of green, when flowers peek out from the bark, when duck mom leads her ducklings swim in the lake, when it doesn't rain every day but every other day, when some impatient or hot-blooded Seattleites walk swiftly in the streets in shorts and t-shirts ...

I am so used to the 7-day speed-of-sound spring in shanghai (only 2-day and speed-of-light this year!!!) and almost forgot that the spring is supposed to last a quarter of a year - 3 months. We are luck to still have spring here in Seattle. Better enjoy it. Seattle Center is a great place to go. It's covered with beautiful grass, where you can feel free to walk, to sit or to lie down. The best of all, the entire Seattle Center is covered with Free-Wifi, so you can set up your work station right there. No excuse for home staying anymore :)

A side note: Iron Man II is coming up on May 7th. Watch it at IMAX theater at Science Center. Book tickets ahead of time, because they sell really fast. Get tickets, click here the link below:
