Even the dogs were out enjoying the Spring-like weather on Sunday.

As seen on Bloor St., just east of Symington Ave.

I had never heard of the town of Mosėdis in northern Lithuania until the day that Eglė and Saulius took us there. It was a total surprise, off the beaten path, and absolutely gorgeous there. I'm so glad we had such excellent relatives / tour guides!

Mosėdis is basically a small town that is known for its rock collection, rock museum, rocks on display all over town, and umm...rocks rocks everywhere! More on that later.

This photo, however, doesn't really focus on rocks. As we walked past this building, a veterinary pharmacy, I spotted a bunch of bikes parked up against it. So of course I stopped to snap a few photos. Here's the red bike.

We finally got some more snow here in Toronto. This winter has been pretty pathetic weather-wise. During the previous two winters, we had hardly any space left to store our shoveled snow, but this year we have to look hard to find a snowflake.

Anyway, I was excited that we had a snowfall last night. I took a slightly longer walk on my way home from work so that I could enjoy some of the snowy sights around my neighbourhood. Here's a snow-covered bike on Perth Ave. just north of Ernest Ave.

Vilniaus gatvė (Vilnius Street) in the old town of Kaunas, Lithuania. A cyclist rides past a bookstore on this old cobblestones street.

It was only today, 7 months after taking this photo, that I looked really closely and noticed little bubbles floating through the air in the blue sky. If you click on the photo, you'll see a larger version.

Icycle 2010: Ice bike races at Dufferin Grove Park. Here's a close-up view of a home-made studded bike tire. It's basically a regular bike tire with a bunch of metal screws stuck through it to give maximum traction on the ice. Commercially-made studded tires are nowhere near as aggressive as these!

This is the last on the ice bike photos for the blog. You can view the rest of them in my gallery posted here.
