Day 56 - 07:37am, 25 February 2019
On the hottest winter day on record, there are definite signs of spring on the riverbank. There are little buds of green starting to unfurl on some of the trees, but you have to look hard to see them. If you'd skimmed your eyes passed as you would normally, then the new growth would have remained hidden, crowded out by all the brown that surrounds them. But then I wonder how much of the water I will actually be able to see when all the trees have leaves on them and open.
And talking of things you cannot see, nearly two months in and I am finally rewarded with a train crossing the bridge while I am there and so in time for me to take my photo. It is just a little two-carriage train and from its lack of speed, it is obviously about to pull into the station. No matter, I'll take it, a big tick on the checklist.
