March is Ladies Month


Bunraku is boomimng

Here in good old Romania, March seems to be for the Ladies, the first weekend in March was a "primavera day" where all the ladies get flowers, single flowers, bunches etc, no matter whether you're married or not the ladies are showered with flowers and little glass buables and shiny things, lots of roadside stands selling all the goods, big deal here, an appreciation of ladies day, pretty good I'd say.

then this weekend another one, more like mothers day I think, we see people selling poplar trees and pine trees ( xmas) on the side of the road, not quite as nice as flowers and shiny things but still a gift non the less, the ladies still get flowers too,

Things are really starting to move along at the studio, we have 4 sets on three stages and a fourth stage firing up Monday,

another week passes.................ziiipp



I am very slack on the bLog lately, I knew it would get this way, not much free time, when it comes, its nice to lay down and stare at the ceiling.............ahhhhh.

Sundays are the Day off, and last week was the Birthday, which was odd to spend it here and on my own, I did have a nice long video chat with the L's.
Today is Sunday again and i'm going for a walk ,probably with MG, and we'll head west maybe?

here's some pictures from the last trek

this escalator was not working, there are a few like this, call Mr Otis.




Here is the Bucurest Mall, not much to say about it really, small crowded, full of people shopping, universal really. ( lots of Perfume on the ground floor)





Forget the "subway "tiles , these are cool, Anne Sachs take note




LIPSCANI neighbourhood....now then this place looks like WW2 but its cool, lots of little bars and retuarants, its definitely the area where the "cool" kids hang out, there's skateboard shops, and "leather" wear,

art shops, small galleries, a bar called the "offside" which has football on all the time, its a warren of little narrow streets and its coming back to life after much neglect as you can see.








THE DACIA, the ONLY car you could have under the communists, there are two doors, four doors, no doors, pick ups, trailers, horse drawn version, and many discarded ones,
now you can buy what you want.








cool kids hang out in this arcade , I took a picture of this place a while back, but now its warmer , people sit outside, this other building , is where they put caucescue ( spelling) against the wall and shot him





cool building



thats it for today

more to come,, will have stage pictures next week
