Where the hell is SPRING ??????

Yes, let me repeat this question: Where the hell is Spring ? According to the calendar it has arrived some time ago. But, according to the weather it is nowhere in sight. In fact it is cold, (-5) and this morning, at 7AM it's snowing again. Mind you, it does not stay on the ground. By  noon there is no snow to be seen. By noon it rains and is still cold. You know. A wet cold... penetrating right to your bones.

Tonc Feinig, the Super Jazz Pianist sent me his April Program...   I'd love to go to some of his concerts.
He is appearing in Klagenfurt, Graz and Vienna with some wonderful side men...

BUT
and this is a very large BUT...  I will not be able to attend even one of his gigs, as I shall be in Africa on Photo Safari from the 3rd to the 30th of April 2013...
Yes, for an entire month there will be no entries on this Blog...  and at last count I am getting over 30 hits a day.  Does this mean that 30 people look at this daily? or does it mean that 60 people look at it every other day?  How does one even estimate such a thing? Anyway it really does not matter. I am writing this Blog more for my own amusement... but it's nice to think that other people look at it now and then.
So... if there is "blogging silence" for a whole month, how many of my faithful viewers and readers will I loose?  I shall be in areas where there is no access to the Internet...  yes, there are still some such areas on this globe....  in the southern corner of Zimbabwe on the border to Mozambique, where the Runde und the Save river flow together, in the area of the Gonarezhou National Park, and then again in the region of the Matusadona, on the south shore of Lake Kariba and then one more time, along the banks of the Zambesi river, down, again close to the border of Mozambique in an area called Mana Pools...   nowhere is there access to the internet and therefore nowhere will I be able to post anything to this Blog...
Won't this break your heart ???
 For an entire month you will not hear about the lousy weather we're having here, nor will you be enlightened about the shenanigans of the money management of the Salzburg provincial government... In fact you will be left to your own devices....
Please bear with me and come again during the month of May where, early on, I shall post some exciting photographs of my Photo-Safari.

Bertstravel just simply has to travel again.
