My 2010. September- December

September: The summer traveling season is finished and Viennese have returned to the work and active life has returned to Vienna too. One event replaced another and I often hadn’t enough spare time to visit everything interested me. But on days off everyone try to slacken one’s pace, put on tourist clothes and go outside Vienna. So and I departed to small town of Spitz to stroll at Wachau valley among riverain vineyards and orchards.

September. Certainly, I couldn’t ignore the main September flower – dahlias and I show the photos I took at Viennese kurpark Oberlaa. This park is a part of a health complex the Term which this autumn opened a modernized rest complex. I recommend visiting the Term to relax especially if you travel in cold season.

September, Austria. Laxenburg. This small town, as well as Baden, is situated closer to Vienna. Foreign tourists very seldom visit Laxenburg may be because of limited time but Viennese as well as in imperial times like to come here to stroll along channels.

October. This month as well as April was divided into two but now the first half of month I have been in Austria – the photo of Baden’s Kurpark; and at the end of month I walked along Tel-Aviv promenade.

November. Rosh-haNikra, it the name of one more Israel preserve located on the coast of the Mediterranean Sea. It is a white chalk cliff which is a border of Israel and Lebanon. The reserve is located only in 14 kilometers from Nahariya (remind: Nahariya is a seaside city-resort in Israel where I spend winter). It’s me in both photos. The tripod is placed on sand and in one and half hour we photographed a sunset.

December. Hanukkah., the Festival of Lights. During eight days Jewish light and unique candelabrum, the nine-branched Menorah which called Hanukiah. In photo you see Hanukiah on entrance to Nahariya city. I wanna pay your attention to a smoke trail around a flame of candles: it is a true oil Hanukiah and not electric.

December. The last Saturday of 2010 we moved for Bay leaves but not to nearest supermarket, we moved from coast aside mountains to cut leaves from a bush. We admired the magnificent views opening in all directions: both aside the sea and mountains and valleys lying on other side up to the horizon. It was a shiny, warm day, but I’ve chosen a photo of crocus grown through fallen foliage just in time of New Year eve.

My 2010. July - August

In hot July days I often stroll in Prater

July. In one of the days off we have had a good time at the Baden’s Hippodrome. I like this charming place for its cosy and relaxed atmosphere. People keep ones eyes with excitement not only on horse races but also appoint the meetings here. It is so pleasant to talk to friends sitting in a café, go out for a short time to place a bet on a next race, and then continue the conversation.

August. Traditionally in August the most significant event in flora and garden Austrian design take place in Tulln on the Danube. This year motto was “Flowering Picture Gallery”.

Schönbrunn Zoo. Elephant calf was born on 6 August. I visited zoo when elephant calf appeared on public for the first time. He is 3 weeks old only and his name is Tuluba “big ears”. Some 61.4% of the 10,000 voters on internet choose the name.

The team of Moto GP (Grand Prix) appears at Vienna Ring

Year of 2010 imprinted in my memory. January - June

On first days of 2011 year I’ve completed the last page of my photodiary of 2010 and begin a new one.

But today I recollect the events of last year. I divided photos according to months, 2-3 for every, and to my surprise, I spent some pleasant hours “by sorting” my impressions and even have involved in discussion of my husband. I found out, we live “the big life’ within a year and I cannot squeezed all events and my impressions in short post but I’ve tried and chosen some photos. So, today – my year of 2010 from January till June.
