Impressions from Germany

Last weekend I had a quick trip to Germany, with my husband and friends.

I took this photo of a bridge while the car was moving with normal speed

A little square in Berlin

Play the picture game!

You must like photos if you are visiting this blog :-)

Why not check out my recently launched Picture Game? I post there one photo with a question about it. The person who gives the correct answer first will win one of my photos. Often, there is also a bonus question, with another chance to win.

So I see you there and wish you fun!

Kazincbarcika, Egressy Beni ut

In the very last days of October, I spent a short time in my home town in Hungary, Kazincbarcika.
Visited my family and had a fantastic high school reunion, after quite a few years. Great time!
Here is a couple of pictures from the place where I grew up.
Enjoy!

Egressy Beni ut is the main street of town. In the socialist era, it was called Lenin ut... I prefer this new name; he was a great composer and playwrighter in the first half of the 19th century, born in one of the villages of which they united the new city called Kazincbarcika in 1954.



Typical apartment house, built in the 50's


One of the more than 40 statues in the town: Kuruc Valiant

You can see the values of the communism from the 50's also on the embossements: work, work, work.







There are a few small squares like this one, along the street
