visit to the fruit blossom on sunday 19th of april











Even as a child I heard stories about the pretty blossoms in the fields around Borgloon. This visit reminded me of the film "Johny Appleseed". Last year there was a serie on Flemish tv about a family cultivating fruit. So now they have all these pictures in the field honoring the actors that made their area popular.
There were giants and an old chapel with a statue of the pope because he came to visit and an underground crib with a relique and yes a rainbow painted on the wall. Typically a small brewery and the tavern in an old building with spiderwebs!!! the weather was sunny and the colors were vibrant.
