Eastern Europe - Set 1


Welcome to Romania - Main Square of Bucharest




The Romanian National Capital Building




Part of downtown Bucharest

Becky was a little bit concerned about the water . . .




This is the reason we came - to get Elder Eyre (and we got him!!!)


Elder Eyre and the returning group of missionaries
(The young lady is their Romanian instructor from the MTC,
she was back in Romania visiting during the time they were leaving)


We spent a fair bit of time touring around Bucharest (we'll have a
block of pics a bit later) . . . But we also got a chance to take a
quick "P-day" trip down to the Black Sea


And the Black Sea really is black in some places
(this dog was white when he first went swimming)



Obviously, we didn't go swimming in it . . .


(Actually the Black Sea was quite beautiful - just don't have a lot of
shots to show you. We did walk in the sand for a few moments, but
mostly just enjoyed the good food and great atmosphere)
(In case you are wondering, the great cuisine you are viewing in the
picture is pig guts)



Jet lag is a bugger, isn't it???




How's this for an interesting downtown power grid?




Visiting some members in Ploesti
(This is Pino and Violetta - Pino is a Romanian author and . . .
although she doesn't publish them, Violetta tells some amazing
stories)




The bus driver is ready . . . This was our transportation around
Romania, a mini tourbus. Later, we'll show you some pics of our
trip to Dracula's castle and across Transilvania








A little roadside stop on our way through the Romanian
mountains to Brasov




Some of the interesting architecture in Romania . . . we'll definitely
have some more pics of this a little later on

Cheese Head!



This delectible goat cheese was another find from the Costco traveling cheese show. So soft and creamy, easily (and deliciously) spread on crackers or bread, or even bagels. Do not be alarmed by the "goat" part. It is yum yum yum!

also- yes I do love my children more than cheese, and will post Halloween pics soon... as soon as I get the pics off my camera onto the computer!

Gap Casting Call Pics












Here they are Alicia- the pics I enetered into the Gap Casting Call. Actually, I don't think I added the tutu pic because I had to be w/in the last 3 months, but I can't remember which other pic of Kendal I submitted. If they make it to the finals, their pics will be online to be voted on by the public- so I'll be sure to let everyone know, so they can vote like madness!

oops

Those posts were supposed to be on my blog!

The CAKE!!






She liked it, but she was a dainty little lady... never really dug in.


But she did offer a lick of her hand to anyone who passed by.



And boy was she mad when I finally took the cake away!
