Walk around Ljubljana… Stretch your legs, breathe in fresh air, pay respect to the liberators of Ljubljana and meet old friends.

The traditional trojkas race w teams three runners strong. Originally each carried a rifle and I think they were all dressed in uniforms, but can’t google it right now

This good samaritan makes sure all comrads can keep walking by procuring… err… energy straight from an old motor oil canister.

Svoboda narodu!

The Hike around Ljubljana is on. Spotted: the Peng.

Actually ‘El Zar Antidrogas Dominicano’, lawyer and President of the FNP (Progressive National Force) Marino Vinicio Castillo, campaigning for his partner, the current Dominican President running for reelection, Leonel Fernández. Santo Domingo. Elections will be held on 16 May 2008 and the whole country is involved in heated debates (which most tourists are blissfully unaware of, shut behind the guarded gates of beautiful hotel resorts).

People are happy to share their political views, however. To me, a sign of a true democracy. The prevalent thought is, as put by one of the many Dominicans I talked to, that the current President is the least bad of the options. How familiar a sentiment Leonel Fernández is well on his way to victory and has more than 50% support according to current polls. Three parties (the violet, the white and the red) have their own candidates while the blue party led by Castillo above, partnered up with the violet and supports Fernández.

If no shoes at foot will pose for tip. Meet Jose Miguel from Santo Domingo.
