Moldova

Hey These are some Pictures from our time in Chisinau - the capitol of Moldova.
They have some cool statues there....lots of lions and busts of old guys. Very cool. It was really a beautiful city, but right now when I think of big cities I think of pain. I think of the people I can't see. The ones that can't go to the nice restaurants and travel around wherever they want and buy stuff. I think of the fact that mostly the rich and the very poor live in big cities like Chisinau.
So it was kind of a bittersweet visit.

We came at a good time - they were having this huge wine Festival the day after we left. So these paraders were somewhat announcing the beginning of the festival. I would like to say that everyone in Moldova dresses like this. But unfortunately that's not true :-)
I'll put up more pics when I can - I'm having a hard time uploading pictures at the moment.
