On the photo page (see link in the column to right) I have posted 3 photos from a morning walk. I went to a nearby town and back – out walking for about an hour and a half.
The first image is Sunday morning in a small village – a woman on her way to the fields carry a hoe, a man walking toward town, a horse-cart crossing the bridge and a couple younger woman standing on the bridge having a conversation. It was a typical scene except for the two Americans walking their way with a camera. As we walked toward the bridge we helped round up two sheep “pre-teens” for the woman they escaped from. Even if an American dresses like a Bulgarian (which I don’t yet) they will look different…differences in gestures, stature, presence, etc. It’s like being able to discern a foreigner on a road in the US. They (we) just look different.
The next is a view of village life – laundry drying on the line, horses in the field, people tending their yards.
Of course I have to have a couple photos of a stork in a field with flowers. I’m pretty sure there are eggs in the stork nests – but maybe not babies yet. One stork always stays with the nest. I’ve seen them grooming the nest in the mornings and late afternoons – cleaning, checking on the eggs, and maybe just standing after a lot of time sitting. Days and nights are definitely warmer. We have rain every few days which keeps everything green and lush.
