This strange column belongs to the Elizabeth bridge. It looks better in larger version. I like again the ballet dance of the cranes:)

The statue of count István Széchenyi
István Széchenyi (21 September 1791, Vienna-8 April 1860, Döbling) the initiator and most important figure of the national liberal reform movement, in Lajos Kossuth’s words “the greatest Hungarian”. Among other things, he brought horse racing to Hungary, donated a year’s income from his lands to lay down the basis for the Hungarian Academy of Science, and established the National Casino. He also took part in the launch of steam boating on the Danube, established one of the first large industrial factories in Pest – the shipyard in Óbuda – along with a winter harbour.

Pharmacy
They like to use these old glasses and porcelans to design a pharmacy. I dont know why but I can’t stand the smell of pharmacies, hospitals and GP clinics. Ohh and I almost forgot to mention…the smell of dentist rooms!!!:)

I really enjoy the early spring. Its funny nowdays because even within a day at times its sunny, at times its rainy and at times its snowing like having a whole year with four season. I was thinking maybe we just don’t know but suddenly the planet startet to move faster around the sun and its 2009 already:)
Happy Easter
I think I don’t have to describe the feelings of my sister’s children when they recognised the surprise. Just look at the photo. The bunny won’t stay with them a friend of us borrowed it for a couple of hours. Happy Easter!
Elisabeth bridge from a Pest
Again a photo about the Elisabeth bridge. From a new angel. Taking a picture from Pest (the easter part of Budapest), you can see the rocks of the Gellért hill. A nice spring day of Budapest! Have a nice weekend!:)
Buda Castle
Part of the World Heritage Site, the Castle, and within it the Royal Palace, stand to the west of the Danube on a hill of marl. A labyrinth lies inside the hill, while centuries of architectural and cultural heritage are visible at ground level.
Minute particular
This photo was taken by my dear friend Linda near Budapest in a little town called Szentendre. At times even little details are enough to give back a mood. The weak sun (today we had even snow during the day), the shape of the frame, the contrast of orange and white….this girl has an eye:)
