...are these beauties, growing now on my balcony, catching the last rays of sun in the autumnal evenings. Who knows me might add I'm not a plant grower, because all my experiences so far have been more or less disastrous, but somehow these flowers managed to resist some very harsh conditions. :-) And sadly now, sun sets much too early in Bucharest's 25 degrees autumn, for me to enjoy them at the fullest. 
What is there in life more to wish for? Some lovely moments when the surprise is being revealed, it hardly fits into a car, 80kg of it are carried on a spiral stairway, and then it's there, it's yours, in your room, in your face, like in your dreams, but this time you touch it and it's perfect. It's been 3 years precisely, but now it's real. Thank you D, for this incredible present on the rainiest day of May!
Guess the things you expect less from, surprise you the most. That is the general rule i've learned over the years, but still catches me unguarderd every single time.
The case might not have been the same with Rome, as it is known it has its dolce vita style, beautiful mediterranean architecture, some good old history to go with and let's not forget the most important part, il grande gelato. :-) And still, after being aware of this, i was a bit skeptical until i was in the middle of it all. But then, there i was standing...with a big smile on my surprised face, if only it would have been for the first time.
And by the way, what's the point of throwing money in that Trevi fountain if you know you'll be back again? :-)
Wow, 2008...that's what i call a year! Somewhere between crazy days, some let downs and great ups, new experiences and fresh starts, but hey, those are the reasons worth living for. I might just jump at a conclusion and say 2008 was the best year of it all. And my wishes for 2009...are just here, in those badly wrapped presents. :-)
As i was trying to find a title for the last picture posted here almost a month ago, i was being caught by the scientific project and the amusing fuss created around it, involving black holes and the fact that we were going to die and bla bla. It then made perfect sense in my metaphorical way of the photo: "Black holes and the end of the world" tadaa.
But then again, when selecting some next pictures and not finding another perfect title for them than this last one, i found it funny to announce that this time, the place is the real "end of the world", as for the black holes, well, not so many, they may be just revelations. Sfantu Gheorghe and the Danube Delta.

Everything must look great in an air baloon, that's what she thought. And as she was getting higher and higher, leaving behind grounds and silhouettes that became less available for the eye, that idea suddently seemed to be real. Nevertheless, she has always dreamt of flying.
