final days

It's Sunday here, 7pm. The final night. Wow. Here's a quick recap of some events of the past few days.

This weekend, Modra was beseiged by 20 years olds. Their reason for coming: MINIKVAS (mini festival), a music festival. It took place around the football field, directly behind Eleneka's house.

Following the sign to the stadium:


The festival is setting up. A red bull tent is always a bad sign of things to come:



So here we are, a day after the above setup photo. And what?! People are in a swimming pool dancing to a DJ. This would be way too dangerous for Canada. Alcohol is fully allowed on the pool deck. Aleco and Hallie both went in for some pool dancing. Wish I had photos of that, sorry


There were a good 20 bands, most of them Slovak/Czeh. This one laptop/drum machine group called MIDI LIDI kicked butt. Click here to see a great tune/video.



MINIKVAS also featured a tent city, where hundreds and hundreds of dirty teenagers camped/partied/urinated. No photos of that. Moving on...

It was Ingrid's birthday yesterday!


And Marta made her a fabulous cake, of course.
