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!

I see you guys travel a lot to Budapest. If you get any recipe with marzipan please give it to me, I love that stuff. Now I understand why a friends mom made so many cakes and cookies with marzipan, she is hungarian.
