    Quite a colorful life you have ;) What’s with the pieces of bread on that old yellow metal (?) box?

    Colorful? Asa e Romania!

    I nabbed that particular photo just next to a magazin alimentara in the Schei neighborhood of Brasov. As far as I can tell someone broke up some bread and left it atop the otherwise-purposeless yellowish metal box. But, no birds were eating it. Given that they were all around, I found it strange.

    and’rei™ – love the trademark! I got your email too late, but we’ll try again. Summer ain’t over yet… it just seems like it. I’ll give you a buzz at some point in the not terribly too distant future.

    shadowchase – thanks, i suppose it’s something of a mixed bag here at the Romer!can variety show
