Nordhausen

March 25, 2008

After a long, long drive in snow storm and heavy rain we returned to good old Wien. We had a nice time at my (step)mom’s in Ossiland… now we will need some two weeks to digest all the cakes and chocolate easter-bunnies we ate. might be more then two…

Please notice the typical German domestic animals: tree-goat, lazy-wild boar and street-mammoth… the donkey, Moritz, was constantly smoking on the pics, so I took him out…

Ossiland is a wonderland 🙂 and we love it!

HAPPY EASTER!!!

Brendi

Brendi is my second oldest friend. We, more or less, started school together, back in ’78 (Bucharest). I could always talk to her without “using words”… it is a funny thing, but even now, after so many years of being apart, it feels like nothing changed. We agreed on visiting each other more often and on emailing more… until we enhance our long-distance telepathic abilities. 🙂

Barbora – alias Barb Wire

March 13, 2008

Barbie ist one of my oldest friends and also the youngest of all 🙂 I know her since 1996… Dear God!!! She is a very loyal and soft friend even if she very often shows her edges, I know better; also a bit strange but I am sure I top her 🙂 and a colour spot in my pantheon. I wasn’t always nice to her but she managed to kick me back to my senses every time I got loose.  I do admire her for her strength and perseverence, for her artistic touch and for her undivided sense for loyality and honesty. She is an example in enduring and winning, the type of never giving up… I am glad she is my friend.

 My life would be different without her stories and straight way of living.

Maria

March 13, 2008

Maria is my “mother”, as she takes care of me in her very special way. I know her since she was a nun in Temesvar, it’s been… hm… 13-14 years since?! something like this. She is a wonderful mother to her sweet daughter Gloria-Sudevi and a great cook and has an amazing voice… the opera sort of voice… we all feel for her husband 🙂 .

She likes fine arts and classical music and something what messes everything up… she is a Sharukhan fan (the guy on the picture) !!! can you believe this? 🙂 Well, we all know how Indian movies end!!! Love and honour win! Always! This is positive! 🙂

Raja Hindustani… tralala…

update 8th of october… we stopped talking to eachother.. I am sort of sorry.. it got too difficult…

Marlies

March 12, 2008

I thought of posting my friends and making them famous on my weblog… 

This is Marlies, my best friend. We used to go to school together some years ago, not many… as you can see on our faces… 🙂 she is a wonderful person, a pain some times as she is very straight and strong headed, but kind and of outstanding empathy. Whatever problem I had, imagined or real 🙂 , I could always count on her support and affection. I can hardly think of a life without her, in the past or in the future.

There is something negative about her… she loves cats!!! brrrrrrr… see the pic above and tell me how can someone say honestly: “such a lovely cat… so sweet… look…” ???

She lives currently in Schwechat! Nice place by the way… Green surroundings and it’s sooo quuuuuiet 🙂

September 18th anno domini: marlies and johnny broke up. I am sort of sad because of this… but I am sure it is better, for both of them.

October 8th AD. I am tired. 🙂

Bucharest

March 11, 2008

Well… here we are! the 5 of us 🙂

We spent a nice time together and saw so many wonderful things. It was a great weekend and Alex, my wife Marlies,  and myself, Nahunte, would very much like to thank the aborigines, Brendi and Markus the Romanian (alias Matei Romanu’), for their hospitality. Kisses to you, guys! 🙂

Casa Poporului – The Palace of the Parliament

March 11, 2008

“The structure combines elements and motifs from multiple sources, in an eclectic neoclassical architectural style. It measures 270 m by 240 m, 86 m high, and 92 m under ground. It has 1,100 rooms and is 12 stories tall, with four additional underground levels currently available and in use, with another four in different stages of completion. The building is constructed entirely of materials of Romanian origin. Estimates of the materials used include one million cubic meters of marble from Transylvania, most from Ruşchiţa; 3,500 tonnes of crystal – 480 chandeliers, 1,409 ceiling lights and mirrors were manufactured; 700,000 tonnes of steel and bronze for monumental doors and windows, chandeliers and capitals; 900,000 m³ of wood for parquet and wainscotting, including walnut, oak, sweet cherry, elm, sycamore maple; 200,000 m² of woolen carpets of various dimensions (machines had to be moved inside the building to weave some of the larger carpets); velvet and brocade curtains adorned with embroideries and passementeries in silver and gold. Constructing the Palace and Centrul Civic required demolishing much of Bucharest’s historic districts, including two neighborhoods with 19 Orthodox Christian churches, 6 synagogues and Jewish temples, 3 Protestant churches (plus eight relocated churches), and 30,000 homes. ”

It was Alex’ wish to go there the first day. We visited “it” and fainted. It is amazingly big and sort of strange, but in the positive sense of the word. For Brendi and for me, it means more than the world’s second largest building… but we could not figure out how much more.
