Bucharest, Romania



















Strada Stirbei Voda, Bucuresti




















Old man with swans. Parcul Cismigiu, Bucuresti

Was in the park today, and saw these two swans. One was giving itself a bath by hovering in the water and then diving under the water. Meanwhile, an old man was standing watching the whole affair.



















Next to Izvor Eminescu, Parcul Cismigiu, Bucuresti

The gardeners were out today, working on the flowers. They had this interesting kind of wheelbarrow, a large half-drum, with large metal wheels. Meanwhile, the stroller brigade had arrived at the Eminescu "spring"..... the pipe coming out of the ground....... to let their kids drink from the pure natural spring waters of Bucharest municipal water supply. A random hiker was meandering through the park, on his way somewhere. He had a pretty good size backpack, but I dont believe there are any campgrounds in Bucharest, so I imagine he was staying at a youth hostel somewhere in the vicinity, or maybe at the Marriott.
