Pictures Of Springtime Around The World
The world is a huge and beautiful place full of different landscapes and cultures. But even with that being true, there are some things that are the same all over the world, like the excitement that comes with spring.
Springtime is always a breath of fresh air after winter, and it brings the promise of new beginnings, no matter where you are in the world.

At least it is in Serbia in early spring. It stays fairly cold in Serbia until the middle of April, when the flowers and greenery start to wake up and the snow stays away.

These are the Blue Springs, in Putaruru, New Zealand. The water here is so pure and clean that is has that lovely aqua color to it. It takes 100 years for the water to filter through the Mamaku Plateau, which is what makes it so clear.
