What’s better than Toccatta and Fugue in D Minor on the accordion? Toccatta and Fugue in D Minor on FOUR accordions!!
Watch these kids on the piano (old piano with the keys fused so that it was a public art piece rather than a piano.) HILARIOUS. These accordion players are a Ukranian group called Harmonia — I bought their CD of classical tunes. LOVE it. :-)
Welcome to Zagreb. Here’s your… Esperanto??
Welcome to Zagreb. Here’s your… Esperanto??, originally uploaded by Kari_Marie. Seen on a tourist information board in the Zagreb train station. Win. :-D
Euro Trip Day 22: Bus ticket to Sarajevo, 24€. Watching men argue over a giant outdoor chess set: Priceless.
I’m posting early because we’re leaving for Zagreb this evening and I don’t know if I’ll get a chance to get to wifi between now and then. This morning we hit up the National Museum and the History Museum. They were both good, but the National Museum was very stark and depressing: half of it [...]

Euro Trip Day 15: Another slow day, and I’m not complaining

Herbie goes to Sacramento
Y’all seen the Herbie movies? The REAL ones, not the cheezy knock-off from a few years back? I always loved those movies. I’ve seen this car on my way home from work a handful of times, but I’ve never been able to get a picture of it before. Today two fortunate events conspired to help [...]
Threat Matrix
I have a bad habit of flipping off inanimate objects when I’m irritated with them. And since I’m weird and like to chronicle random moments, I’m slowly accruing a small gallery of pictures of me flipping things off. This prompted a friend today to tease me about it, asking me if I was going to [...]

A post in honor of Talk Like A Pirate Day
Even though it’s International Talk Like A Pirate Day, I’m not going to write in Pirate-ese. While I know the intention is to be silly, I still feel a bit too silly to do so. So instead I’ll post the pictures I took this summer in London of the replica of Sir Francis Drake’s Golden [...]
