Malta - Gozo again

Gozo again. If you click on the picture, you will see that they care about their fishermen - read what's written on the blue truck to the right.
Happy July to all of you!

Malta - Gozo from the sea

A view of Gozo, as aproaching from the sea. Have a great week!

Malta - Valetta: hectic

In the morning Valetta is hectic. Republic Street is full of people, going shopping or sightseeing...
But today is Sunday, and we are relaxed. Enjoy!

Malta - Valetta building(s)

Here we had rain for the first time in weeks. It is so refreshing! Somehow in Malta, although the weather was hot, we never had this feeling of exhaustion we have here when the temperature increases. Could have this been the holiday breeze?!
Happy Saturday!

Malta - Sky Watch Friday and a wonderful sunrise

We were happy to have a room with a view - the sea opening in front of our eyes each morning, with majestic sunrises that enriched our days. Malta was for me a wonderful revelation, one of peace and mediterrranean flair, a place where we could trully let all go and think about nothing but how wonderful this place is.
Before...and after.Enjoy the sun and the Friday!
Thanks, Tom, for hosting Sky Watch. Please click the logo above to follow the link.

Gozo - a one day jeep safari

Looking for a jeep safari in Gozo? Forget about any other offers, go for one at Benji's travel agency ! Cheap but amazing - for only 30 EUR per person (compared to 60 EUR pp at the competition) you get a 6 h trip around Gozo and a wonderful guide. Tip: ask for the elderly driver from Xewkija. He will take you to the most amazing places on the island, and will tell stories you will remember...
One of the places that totally amazed us is the Salt Pans. They are drying up the sea water here and collect later the salt. An amazing view, a joy for the photographer too!
Happy Thursday!

Malta - Blue Grotto from the waves

The blue, the feeling. I was slightly afraid of the small boat swinging fast left-right when we started, but then, once the shore was left behind and the beauty of the Blue Grotto started spreading in front of us, I forgot. My fingers were just fast in adjusting the ISO. Sometimes useless. Sometimes with a good result. I know now why people are so inlove with the Mediterranean blue...
Happy Wednesday!
Mesmerizing!
Fascinating games of colour and waves.
Tourists :)...

Malta - Blue Grotto

Incredible blue waters before we started for the Blue Grotto. More to come :).
Happy Tuesday!

Maltese wonders

Hi everybody, I am back to work and blogging. For a long while now I will take you to Malta.
Enjoy the tour! For today it's St. Julians in the evening.
Have a great week!

summer (or job?!) holiday

Since I really cannot keep up with posting these days, I decided to take the time off blogging to manage my daily duties at work, as well as a short real holiday soon.

So see you in about two and a half weeks! Thanks for visiting, keep posting, and I am looking forward to catch up with your gorgeous photos soon!

Sky Watch - on Saturday

My sky watch comes late because my job is getting crazier and crazier. A moment of relaxation on Saturday and here we are: still on Muntele Rosu, watching the sky gliders.
Happy Saturday!
... and visit Tom - the head of the sky watchers :)!

urban views

I guess you have seen this Ploiesti building in a lot of pictures on this page. I was told they are building it since 9 years... Oh, well, they managed to install the windows recently so here is a beautiful reflection.
Happy Wednesday!

green, green, so much green

Oh, well, we have to admit that Moeciu de Sus is a green area!
Happy Monday!

morning dew

when we arrived at Muntele Rosu (Jackie, Lacu Rosu is far away from here. This place is next to Cheia.) it was early morning. we found these crystals as we started climbing.
today is also a beautiful day - enjoy your weekend!

storm at Muntele Rosu

Muntele Rosu is something I posted quite often, since it is one of our favourite places. This is a storm from two weeks ago. I was a little bit afraid, but not that much as not to take out the camera.
Happy Sky Watch Friday! Don't forget to visit Tom.

rural Romania

Long time no see, friends! But my job keeps me extremelly busy.
A teambuilding last week in Moeciu de Sus, next to Rasnov- Bran region (Brasov) proved to be a wonderful photo safari too :).
Have a great Thursday!

Junii Brasovului (2)

I continue with my series of portraits. For more about the Days of Brasov see the excellent page of Ro_Pumpkin HERE.
Meda, the things you found on the internet were about the "Golden Stag", a music festival indeed, but which has less in common with this one. The Days of Brasov is a new festival, 7 years old I guess. Thank you for googling it, thou! I most appreciate it!
Have a great Tuesday, everybody!

Junii Brasovului

We interrupt our broadcast from London to show you few portraits of the "Brasov Youngsters" - pictures from the last day of the Brasov festival (like two weekends ago I guess, right after our return from London).
Have a great Saturday!

Sky Watch - A Swiss in UK

Hubby said "oh, look at that" so I looked. I thought then this would make a great sky watch picture.
No clue what's all about, other than it's something about Swiss. I mean, I read the plate but I don't remember... we were after the dinner and some beer :)).
Happy Friday!
Please remember to check Tom's page for more about Sky Watch Friday!

people of London: the Green Marketeers (2)

Back to the people & food, still in the Green Market.
Happy Tuesday!
ps: desperately need a party dress! two weddings coming... OMG! so you know that today I am going shopping... and I don't like this!
