the days 1

i told you about the "days of brasov" festival held on 1-4 may . it's about time to post something about it although i didn't really watch closely what happened .

lets start with the poster (the small one is from last year) . you can see the hats of the 7 groups of "juni" (more about this in the next posts)

to drive

probably the day will come , and soon , when people will drive trucks and tanks on the city streets . why ? size matter ... oh , wait , it's not that , it's stupidity ... hehehe

deco

recently , brasov got a lot of new urban furniture . everywhere but especially in the old town . and it looks better .

this is actually an old design but with new paint . there were a lot of them before but now i think this is the only one left . and it's in front of the city hall .

rainbow

last week in brasov we had the chance to see a double rainbow . and it was quite long , almost 20 minutes . not the best spot but this is the view from my window .

meat

sunday we went for a picnic in cristian (some 10 km from brasov) at a country house with a nice garden .
so ... mixed grill ... hahaha ... meat , meat and more meat . oh , and some fresh salad . and some red wine ... hehehe

nighthawk

last weekend was very busy ... hahaha ... actually not really , maybe just a lot of birthday celebration (not mine) . that's why i didn't post .(sorry)saturday night we were almost home when we decided to go for a night cup , listen to some music and watch the view from belvedere , a parking on the road to poiana brasov .

so , this is the old part of brasov on a saturday night / morning (aprox 3 am)

contrast

back to brasov .
but keeping the animals theme .
i bet you don't get to see something like this in your city .
a mall and a flock of sheeps right next to it .modern and ancient . in a city . in europe . in 2008 . hahaha . very traditional . very rural . very romanian .

yard life

my aunt has 5 roosters . the smallest one is a real fighter . it's actually the oldest and it's taking care of the whole yard . the biggest is the white one and it looks like it's wearing long underwear . the colorful one is a beauty but has no tail . the one on the fence (from 2 days ago) likes to fly a lot . which one's gonna be the next dinner ? hahaha

morning dew

this is the time when i wish i would know more about my camera and about photography ... hahahaha
the garden is full of interesting subjects . you just have to look

fences

this is a funny picture that i actually took by mistake . if you look closely you can see a rooster walking on a fence and in the background a cat walking on another fence . a lot of gimnasts ... hahaha ... it's like the olimpics in the yard

back garden

the back garden ends here . because of the heavy raining the water was high and the sunset was giving a magic feeling to it .

sky

like i said , i have some nice pictures from easter trip and although are not from brasov , i want to post them .

the weather was bad except for the first day when i saw this spectacular sky . the clouds were still white .

garden resort - the view

an all-around view from the garden resort in moeciu . it's gotta be amazing to wake up in the morning to something like this and have breakfast on the balcony .

garden resort

two weeks ago we went for a ride and we end up at Moeciu in Brasov county , some 35 km from brasov. we found this place called garden resort where we had lunch . actually it's not a resort , more like a pension / mini hotel . it looks a lot better on the inside , very classy decorations , good taste , warm . but the best thing about it is the view . breathtaking . look at the reflection on the windows . tomorrow i'll show you how perfect is the location .

eggs

i'm back !
those of you who just celebrated easter , i hope you had a great time .
i spent a few days in the country , with lots of food , some nice pictures , cold weather and rain and i catched a cold also ... hmm ... hahaha... it was nice
...so , now i have some pics with red eggs (country style and my own arrangement) . hope you like'em ...
i'm hearing the fireworks outside , it's the opening of the "the days of brasov" festival . probably i will post something about it next week .
