Cromelech

I went to Alentejo - south Portugal -  and decided to visit some peculiar stones left here by our ancestors ... it's called cromelech  and is the most important megalithic site in Portugal, consisted by 96 standing stones arranged in an oval. It is said that it was used for sacred rituals. I find this things trully amazing ...
There are so many beauties out there, spread over, among us, and it seems that sometimes people don't care for its existence.

Frog

I'm so sorry about my absence ... my internet was not working for a while. I had problems uploading pictures, I really hope that everything is settled now ...

I decided to spent a few days in Alentejo. It's kind of a small paradise, but among trees, animals, no noise from the city, no horns from the cars, no traffic lights, no ... just something to fill in ... Some pure air to breath, great food from the region, marvellous weather at the swimming pool ... That's how I spent a great weekend:)

I chose this picture, because it really moved me ... I'm not a frog fan ... but this one was so tinny, that I felt the urge to take a picture and post it. I was seated in this chair, but then I realized that I was not alone, and when I looked down, I found that this cute animal was sharing the same spot. I moved out, of course, the chair was taken, and the frog arrived there first ... so I just let it rest ...
