Autumn warmth, Warsaw, Poland
Just off the busy roads of central Warsaw is Saxon Garden, a large park where the hustle and bustle of the city is lost in the trees and fountain. It is a fantastic place to enjoy the warmth of the October sun.

Banners
The banners were brought to the church for a coronation from all the counties of Hungary. Many of the banners are from regions that are no longer part of Hungary, but they still belong in this church, which is for all Hungarian people.

This replica, in St. Stephen's Chapel, was created for Hungarians to pay homage to when the original ended up in the United States. The original has been restored to the people of Hungary, and can now be seen at the Hungarian Parliament.

I am a storyteller. I love a good story, whether it's told through words or photos. My love of travel started when I started travelling--in 1994 when I was an exchange student in New Zealand.
