My birthday party



Weel Sunday was my ? aniversary and as it followed the Easter holidays when everybody just eat, drik and sit around the table, I said we should go out to celebrate me...and so we did.The plan was to go bbq somewhere nice, in the nature.
Peter and I we love Remetea, a rather interesting area where nature felt free to play with mountains, rivers, plains.The climb is not so diffucult, of course if you are trained...otherwise is quite harsh, it's like climibing few thousand steps straight up. We loved it!







We were in a hurry as some of our friends expected us down at the bottom of the mountain. I can say that only today my legs stopped hurting. Afterwards we set near the river and cooked the traditional mici and slanina (bacon) and some chicken. Lovely.

It was an unusual birthday party but we had a great deal of fun and even a birthday cake.

I forgot

...to tell you that we took part in the "chain reaction" activity on the 28th of March. That means, if you forgot, that we cycled around the city (few hundreds of cycling lovers) to show that we care about nature and the health of the Earth....and of course to sensitize the local authorities in order to arrange more cycling tracks throughout the city....

The latter didn't work out yet :)!

Briefing...

Less and less time for me to write on this blog or probably the spring air that invites me out...can't tell! The truth is I love this time of the year...it's warm, but not hot, the trees and flowers are in blossom, the grass is green and the earth is simply reviving.

Anyway: We went to the National theatre for the International Theatre Day and we listen to the great actor Florin Piersinc just telling stories from his youth and acting experiences. Very interesting and captivating...never thought one can speak like that to an audiance that was literally in a trance. We loved it!

We had a trip to Budapest (Peter had a sort of business trip). I love that city! We visited the Zoo. It is worth visiting while in Budapest. It's quite big (we walked for 4 hours and we still missed the elephants! Anyway I loved the diversity of the animals and the fact that they were very well supported and they really looked healthy and happy ... as much as they could be. Very many families (babies born in captivity...which means that they are ok!). We also visited Erika (my sister-in-law) she moved near Budapest, near the Danube and the forest to a very exotic location, considering we're speaking about a rather flat country. Many cyclists and sportsmen...I loved that too. We also had a small shopping session....which ended in a cake shop.
By the way, did you know that Hungarians are obssesed with marzipan!!! I really don't like the taste!

This weekend we had Easter holidays, Part one - is the catholic Easter. So we had cakes, lots of food and red eggs. Now, there are only few days left until the Easter holidays, Part two. Hopefully will have sunny days in Baia Mare and maybe will go out for a walk at Izvoare or so....will see!

Happy Easter holidays for some and Happy spring holidays for the others!
