Hopefully Blogger has fixed their problems or has finished creating problems to us… I’m so happy that you managed to get here and leave your comment! I’ll try to find out what happened with your beautiful pictures at the Photo Festival!!<br /><br />Azer,<br />Ahhhhhhhh! You noticed they were beautiful!! And those heavy costumes weren’t at all appropriate for the summer time we had there… ;)<br /><br />Baron,<br />Thanks! I’m glad you enjoyed!!<br /><br />G@tto,<br />… much better than the words I could put in there… ;)<br /><br />Lady,<br />Homesick? We in Portugal would mention name it «saudade», which is quite difficult to explain!!<br /><br />Dana,<br />It’s not an easy task, and there is no one else that could help! But I prefer it that way… ;)<br /><br />Lucie,<br />La métaphysique du temps n’explique pas tout, mais c’est vrai qu’on a des difficultés à trouver une sortie pour tout ce qu’on doit faire…<br />L’école fonctionne normalement, sauf que le curriculum normal est inclus dans chacun des trois départements d’art: musique, beaux-arts et dance! La partie musée vient en addition… ;)<br />Les œuvres en bois semblent être beaucoup plus anciennes que les fers… ;)<br /><br />Barb,<br />Great to have a Monday holiday; we never have holidays moved, so if they come on a Sunday, they rest on a Sunday… ;)) It was a great performance, indeed!<br /><br />Joyce,<br />With a little bit of luck (like Mr. Doolittle…) I could have caught them almost as a whirling dervish… ;))<br /><br />Jen,<br />I think you got it: national pride!! The show was quite nice and there was a reception afterwards; nice also… ;)<br /><br />Pietro,<br />The wooden sculptures are old and outstanding!! The Skralabai is amazing and the show was a great performance; but they were sweating on those heavy costumes… ;)<br /><br />Leo,<br />An interesting change: I had already posted some museums and some shows, but this was a bit more organized… ;)<br /><br />Betty,<br />Better try it in summer or I bet you’ll find it a bit too cold in their winter… ;)) Nothing to compare with the climate in Singapore… ;))<br /><br />Lara,<br />No one seems to have time for anything… ;) Thanks for taking time to drop by and leave a word here!!<br /><br />Lori,<br />The ballerina was the winner of the first prize in the dance department! Real Class!!<br /><br />Celine,<br />Things are getting manageable… But yesterday it was a disaster: Cristiano started well, but ManUnited lasted only ten minutes… Barça won decently yesterday, but they would never ever had been in the final in Rome if the referee of their previous game with Chelsea wasn’t a bit blind on penalties… ;))<br /><br />Peter,<br />Hope things are better or at least manageable with your mother. My father is getting ok, but surgery isn’t yet excluded and that, at almost 92 (in ten days), isn’t something to make me feel calm…<br />This time the visit had a quite nice «side» programme, so things were a bit more interesting than usual… ;)<br /><br />Ming,<br />Great to see you back here! The wooden pieces are outstanding!! And the costumes…<br /><br />Dina,<br />You’re welcome to travel whenever you wish!

I’m finding hard how our societies aren’t prepared to deal with ageing… and statistics show that our communities are getting older and older… Like one of our former prime ministers used to say, it’s life… ;)<br />Thanks for your comments and good wishes! I understand that these posts aren’t probably as exciting as my former trip to India, so I truly appreciate your efforts to leave a word here!! Thanks from heart!!<br /><br />Kven,<br />I wonder whether you would be able to dance with that footwear… ;))<br />It was a great show, indeed!!<br /><br />Emm,<br />Well, I don’t know if the students enjoy, but for the visitors it seems a gorgeous place… ;))<br /><br />Susu,<br />And they also danced very well… not to mention the costumes, which were amazing, though a bit too hot for the season… ;))<br /><br />Pat,<br />Well, it seems that all seasons are busy around here… With Slavic roots, I’m sure you would have enjoyed the performance! The skrabalai is amazing!!<br /><br />Ron,<br />Great to read you here! Always!!<br /><br />Rakesh,<br />Thanks! We are all learning from one another! That’s the biggest achievement of the blogosphere, at least from my point of view!!<br /><br />Alex,<br />Those wood carvings are actually wonderful! And old… ;)<br /><br />Hélène,<br />Olga? Looks Nordic… In the plural, it would remind me of Ayers Rock and the amazing Uluru… ;))<br /><br />Stella,<br />Great to read you back! Always a great pleasure!!<br /><br />Matt,<br />So you have already been there! It’s amazing the places you have visited already!!!<br /><br />Indrani,<br />The rhythm came by accident, I’m sure… ;)) But the performance was quite elegant!!<br /><br />Lynn,<br />I definitely need some beach, but things have been a bit hard here lately, and the weather hasn’t been very helpful, though today the temperature is 33º centigrade… However, the Meteorology says the rain will be back on Sunday; strange times… ;))<br /><br />Ash,<br />That’s rhythm!! Tap your fingers… ;))<br /><br />Joy,<br />They seem to be enjoying their performance also… ;)<br />It was a bit hard to enter your blog last time, but it seems that Blogger has finally fixed the problems… Hopefully!!<br /><br />Greensborough People,<br />Thanks for your first time comment here! About the perspective of getting to Vilnius, it seems to me that you’re getting too enthusiastic. I would cool down a little, and then pack to visit it; not Right NOW… ;))<br /><br />Paz,<br />Thanks for the wishes! The show was nice and the woods are outstanding!<br /><br />Alice SG,<br />There are always some odds with Blogger, but it seems to be fixed now; at least for a while…. Agree with you as far as the beauty of the singers and dancers’ costumes is concerned…<br /><br />Tinsie,<br />That was a great show and I had the chance to in the first row… ;))<br /><br />Lyliane,<br />C’est vrai que ça a un air vraiment nordique, je ne suis jamais allé en Carélie, mais si tu le dis, je le crois!!<br />Merci pour tes soucis; c’est vrai que nous ne sommes plus préparés pour prendre soin de nos aïeux (surtout quand il s’agit d’un seul fils (fille) qui, en plus, doit travailler), et notre société n’est pas non plus préparée pour le vieillissement de la population… Mais, c’est la vie et il faut la prendre comme elle vient... Quand même, je me sens beaucoup plus heureux en ayant tout ces soucis que si je ne les avait pas plus… On ne t’oublie pas, même si on a raté la chance de te faire une petite visite à la fin du mois de mai; on a eu l’espérance, mais pas la chance…<br /><br />Vamsee,<br />I’m glad that you enjoyed! That’s the great advantage of blogging: we’re are always learning!! Thanks for the wishes!<br /><br />Kyh,<br />That’s exactly the feeling I caught; no wonder after so many years of state atheism, the reaction is perfectly understandable. We’ll see in some years from now how it settles…Trotternoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14878297.post-27302438397222399932009-05-28T15:38:05.136+01:002009-05-28T15:38:05.136+01:00Your posts really make me want to visit there AND ...Your posts really make me want to visit there AND hear the music!Dinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03461925401870320466noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14878297.post-59727128238725611052009-05-28T05:17:36.417+01:002009-05-28T05:17:36.417+01:00The wooden art pieces are amazing.
