Summer arrives in Baku

The last couple of days have been very warm and sunny, and there are new leaves appearing on nearly all the trees now. The ones that surround our balcony are still in winter dress though without a sign of green. Once they have grown leaves, sitting on the balcony is like being in a treehouse and it's a great place to spend the day or evening.

Today was our last infant massage class - this is the view from our teacher's apartment lucky lady! You can see the old city of Baku to the left, dwarfed by the shiny new buildings rising in the distance - the Hilton and Mariott hotels, and Port Baku business and residencial complex.

D was not very patient as I took photos of the view and of him... I'm not sure he's on board the idea of a photo a day for my blipfoto journal!
