I thought this was rather annoying at the time of the picture because it was making the traffic move slowly and it was hot, but now looking back I think it’s rather funny and fair to allow everbody on the road with their own unique form of transportation.

I put this picture up because for me it reminds me of how much respect the animal trackers had for this dangerous creatures. With those horns and weighing several hundred pounds you can see why these beasts are kept clear of.

Little porcelain figures, mostly angels you can see while walking the Charles Bridge in Prague. This small souvenirs with wings, hanged together affects you calming.

Angel is anthropomorphic figure. Winged forms intended to transmit the word of God to humankind. Angels personify divine will and are the messengers of God.

The traditional polish dumplings can be filled with various stuffing (sweet: strawberries, berries and salty: meat, sauerkraut). My favourite contain white cheese (dry cottage cheese), mashed potato and onion. They are usually topped with fried onion and bacon.

I would interpret this as being harmony between nature and man and nature’s nurturing and omnipresent abilities.

The “Notturna di San Giovanni” is the traditional night run, one of the oldest road races in Italy, which is organised in occasion of the festivities of the Florence patron- San Giovanni. The marathon was divided into two categories: 10 km for professional runners and the uncompetitive walk for families (4 km). Even the pouring rain couldn’t spoil the sporty atmosphere.
