Stone
There are 300 fortified churches in Transylvania, some still active. Around 10 are included in the UNESCO heritage.
We like them and try to see as many of the 300 as we can, weather they are considered important or not, and each time we go there look for a few more.
We like old citadels and fortifications too, even if they are not as big and famous as your walls.
Hope you like these.
PS The round stone marked with a red cross is one of the stones men were supposed to carry uphill to the church to prove they were fit to marry. And it was quite a long way up!

I also like them and I feel comparisons with other monuments is not good. Each building is a piece of history in itself. So, no need to be more or less than any other building.
You know, a tunnel has been found a week ago in the Cathedral. It would join the cathedral and the bishop Palace, but research is still on. so I can't tell you much about it. Mysteries gallore!the background for a a new possible legend!
I'm going through the PLI things in order to decide on how to present it at the seminar, and all of a sudden I really miss it. I'm angry with myself, but can't help feeling it. It's stupid, it's water under the bridge, and it was really hard. Besides, it was work-how stupid can one be to miss that?
Think about MTN, the successful project. It was also work. As a matter of fact, PLI was great work and we did lots of things. I sometimes also miss it, especially when I see waht I am working now on.
Remember I was trying hard to book a Flashmeeting? It had to be urgent.I could not, so we changed into elluminate. I took time to study the tool, make a free trial account, asked Sorin to help me test the functions until late at night and the recording, booked the ICT lab, announced the kids. Now my partner changed her mind. Wasted time.Yesterday I was told my prospective partner for next year found a better idea/partner. After planning and long speeches on honour and keeping promises. I think I need a break from projects. Really. You're not the only one who's sometimes unlucky- if it's any consolation.
It's not help, but at least, one stops considering the only person in trouble. As teachers we are very concerned with involvement among students. However, our level of comitment is not a great one. Fortunately, there are always people who think before answering and don't make a mess of everything.
It was not a waste of time, you learned how to use Elluminate.
I can't tell you anything new about the tunnel in the cathedral, but I keep on looking for real information about it. I'll keep you informed.
We always think it only happens to us, but it does not. I think nothing ever "only happens to us".
Two conclusions: I have to learn to say no more often. And I've been working too much. I have reduced my sleeping time in order to cope. I am very tired. You can scold me-in fact I wish you would.
Have you finished with the visit report?
I've been thinking about Zorita these days and he way you had all offered to plough. I hope things are OK.
As things usually happen when it's too late-I managed to get a Flashmeeting booking account. I'll use it some other time. If you ever need to know how to get one or if you ever need to urgently book a meeting, let me know. Booking for someone is widely done, I understand. Sorry if I was not supposed to offer to. I don't want to be a pest.
Leaving for the seminar tomorrow evening. I'm nervous. We prepared the test TS, you can see it my projects, if you are curious. Might be a mess, though...
bye
I was wrong, they are just thinking of stopping them. I'd start praying, but I've been so bad lately...:(
Ok, I've commented enough.
Don't get stressed!
