majális





Second try – all lost this morning, tried to pack too many pictures…
So this time I attempt in two goes.
Majális is May Day community outing – originally a town-folk thing I think, who needs more being out in the fresh air, than us village-folk. However, it is still a novelty, to spend time in a big field, surrounded by woods and green fields,
Eating, playing games, walking about, messing about. Mostly it was gulyás, the
real stuff, cooked in big pots in several family groups, on the communal one that looked a bit like Stone Henge, there was mostly bacon and onions stuck on sticks hold over the ember, and the juices thus created collected on fresh bread. Quite nice actually… Some pictures were made from the cca 15meter hunters’ tower.
Also I forgot to introduce to you goatkid no.2, who is thankfully a female, therefore she has a name, and she is called Carolyne… and a swallow-tailed butterfly Alan caught in the yard. Don’t worry, after the photo-session it was let go.
