Today I break away a bit from the daily photo format because I am including a slide show of the photos I took yesterday below. Please, let me know what you think of it; I will be waiting for your comments.

    They are all fantastic Rudy, i can see the independence day is very important and highly celebrated. Maybe because we are independent since 1143 we forgot how important this day is and now we celebrate the end of monarchy which coincidently is in the same day with 767 years bewteen them.Lets see if i can get any celebration on 5 october, ok, i’m talking to much:)

    WOW! I just ran into your slideshow…great pics! I forgot how beautiful my country is! I left when I was only 7 years old so looking at this slideshow helped me remember the beauty and vitality of the people and places. Thanks!

    Sompopo: He is doing what you think he is doing and it is one the things that I dislike. This act is a common view in this country.

    Everyone else: I am happy that you liked the slide show. Some of you asked how to do it, so I wrote a page with instructions on how to put a Flickr slide show on your blog. Please, if you add a slide show on your photoblog, come back here and let us know about it.
