Guten Rutsch!!

A german expression to wish you all: get to the New Year well!! The first picture was taken on the Christmas market in Karlsruhe, the second one in Tromso (the green light in the background is the aurora borealis).

sunny walk on the Schauinsland

Frohe Weihnachten!!

Merry Christmas! Sarbatori fericite!

skiing

Today I took my skiing equipment and went to the mountains for the first skiing tour of the winter. It was a great pleasure to be back there even though the weather got cloudy and cold in the end :)

a flag...

... because today is Romania's national holiday. I took this picture in central Bucharest last month.

market day

Münsterplatz, Freiburg - I like markets like this with all the fruits and vegetables.

similarities

somehow the colors of this plant are very similar to the colors of the graffito from Bucharest from my last post...

Greetings from Bucharest

Yesterday I discovered this colorful wall :)

it's snowing

Last weekend we took a walk in the mountains. It was sunny and the temperature was about 23°C. Now it's winter all of a sudden...

lost train

close to Dragoș Vodă, Romania. It was a hot day (40° C) and the train was standing there in the plain.

sunset in Bucharest

The summer came back this weekend. This picture taken on a very hot summer evening in Bucharest seemed suitable to capture this feeling.

Sunset in Sulina

On this rainy and cold first day of autumn I remember the summer and my holiday in Romania...

driving back to Bucharest...

2 points of view

This weekend I visited the beautiful city of Brasov. The second picture with the view of the city was taken from the mountain that is in the first picture (from behind the writing "Brasov"). By the way, there is no more rain this time - it's the opposite. Right now there are 39 degrees Celsius and it hasn't rained in weeks...

roses

Unfortunately I can't post their scent along with the picture...

patina

A beautiful old house in Bucharest that has seen better days.

black cat

another street scene from Bucharest. :)

street vendor

selling vegetables on Strada Mihai Eminescu in Bucharest on another (!) rainy day. I'm back in Germany, and of course it's raining here, too...

Groapa Vacaresti

We visited this place in one of the few rain breaks. It is located quite close to the city center and was meant to become a lake once (but that didn't happen). Right now a small wilderness has developed there that reminds of the Danube Delta (with plants, rare animals etc.). Maybe one day it will be a nature reserve.
