Smelling the sunshine

It is always overcast or rainy here in the UK and when mentioning to some friends that I could smell the sun on very sunny day, I have been told to be a bit "strange".

The past few days have been quite sunny and when that happens all around me becomes very special: fantastic spring scents which I can actually describe. It is a mixture of delicate flowers and a hint of ozone.

I remember the same smell after powerful thunders storms during hot summers back in Vicenza.

When I can smell the sun my mind goes back in time and I relive those moments; emotions that have been shaped by my past, a special excitement passes through my body and happy I feel the fervor of the past youth.
