Some of my favorite things in spring:

1. The smell of star jasmine (ringosperma) throughout the city

2. The return of seasonal gelato flavors: melone (cantaloupe), fragola (strawberry), ciliegie (cherry)

3. Seeing couples of all ages having romantic moments (morning, noon and night) in parks across the   city

4. Watching dogs play during their early morning romp at Villa Pamphilj Park

5. Bright pink Bougainvillea everywhere!
