Bonjour à tous!

avec une connexion internet chaotique, pas facile de charger des images :-) en plus je n'ai pas eu trop le temps depuis mon arrivée à Paris. Et oui! pour ceux qui n'étaient pas au courant, j'ai "déménagé" à Paris pour une durée indéterminée... Donc j'essaie de m'adapter à ma nouvelle classe, au foyer et à la ville.

Au sommaire des prochains "posts", journées du Patrimoine - séminaire d'intégration à l'Abbaye de Royaumont - le foyer.

A bientôt!

Pécs was once upon a time under Ottoman rule. The city was turned into a real Ottoman city with turkish bath, mosques... Some of these artifacts survived and here is one of them being nowadays a christian church.

Porcelaine Zsolany with its unique greenish colour is embedded in many buildings - the famous Zsolany factory is located in Pécs.

Beautiful view, only a little bit foggy. It was endlessly raining... There we almost had an incident with a big nice dutch car parked on the way. The path was so slippy with mud that Daniel could not reverse. But he is a great driver (& fire engine driver) so we finally didn't even touch the big nice dutch car...

The big question was to decide who are going to be the parents of the little Reka in order to get the family discount? The older being Gigi and Daniel but they are siblings...

Pécs is the 5th hungarian town. Located in the south of the country it is a student city. We decided to go there and visit Lea (Gigi 's cousin), her husband and children. We had to replace the Balaton tour bicycle trip because of rain.

We could observe a beautiful integral double rainbow.


And God said, "This is the sign of the covenant I am making between me and you and every living creature with you, a covenant for all generations to come: I have set my rainbow in the clouds, and it will be the sign of the covenant between me and the earth. (Gen 9, 12-13)

The promise being "The LORD smelled the pleasing aroma and said in his heart: "Never again will I curse the ground because of man, even though [a] every inclination of his heart is evil from childhood. And never again will I destroy all living creatures, as I have done." (Gen 8,21-22)

We could never find the way out... lake & swamps are like a maze.

In Poroszolo, on the other side of the Tisza-To lake we got the hospitality of the local calvinist church. We could use a big meeting room, a real kitchen and even sleep inside the building even though some preferred to build their tents outside.

After quitting the main stream of the Tisza we entered the swamps. A totally different world with narrow passages. Thanks to Peti for keeping us on the path!






Happy end!
////
First real camping. First hot meal taken seated: Gulash and paprika-krumpli. The soil there was really bad and Jessi urged me to choose the place where to build the tent so we could at least try to avoid stones. Impossible task and we decided to put a really big stone between us two (i.e. in the middle of the tent) ... guess what? it is also impossible! laying down I felt a big relief under my foam ;-)

On the way we discovered a virgin island with sand beaches... we HAD to stop!

For the second camp we had the chance to be hosted in the garden of a man living in Miskolc. No electricity (anyway we don't need it), open air rainwater shower, hordes of mosquitos & nice grass!




the toilet!
