Singing girls - very cute! |

I can't resist adding one more gorgeous sunflower! |

Same spot - more zoom - look at the sunflower fields in the distance. |
|
More zoom - you can see my apartment "block" - from a different era than the other homes. |
|
Cool path, figuratively and literally! |

Laundry Time - and washing the bathroom floor time. |
Corn, wheat, sunflowers.
|
What a happy sight and imagine acres and acres and acres of sunflowers. |
- I visited Veliko Turnovo - applying for my Bulgarian ID card and doing a little "set up the apartment" shopping. What was high on my list to buy??? A fan and sheets with elastic to hold onto the mattress.

A lot of smaller birds like to nest inside the bottom and sides of the storks nest. Apparently they like hanging out on the utility lines too. |
- I can see a storks nest from my window and I was wondering where they went during the day. On my walk, I found out. There were two scenes like this - one on each side of the road.
- These girls from my village sang in a town holiday (every town, village and city celebrates a holiday once a year. Each one has it's own special day.) The girls did a great job!
|
Do you know what these are? I don't think there are any in Arizona but they are delicious. They are Mulberries. There are two kinds - the deep purple and white ones. Makes a walk a real treat! |
|
- I helped tie some cucumker (krastavitzi) plants so they have plenty of room to grow up rather than out. People work really diligently in their gardens -- before and after work. Makes for very long days!
|
- Went for a 2 hour walk on this narrow road - mostly through farm land. It's so beautifully green here. I'm sure the pictures will remind folks of the US midwest.....well maybe not the horse/donkey carts.
- Such a typical scene - people of all ages walk from home to the market daily. Bread is bought fresh as are staples which don't come from gardens.
- Hey - indoor plumbing. And this is a utilitarians dream......the bathroom IS the shower. Everything gets washed along with your body. No worries about spilling anything on the floor - just spray the shower on it and down the drain it goes. Cool!
