MYANMAR ,Burma - Old-Bagan, Sonnenuntergang mit Blick von der imposanten Shwesandaw-Pagode(Tempel)
MYANMAR ,burma - Old-Bagan , zum Sonnenuntergang auf die Shwesandaw-Pagode,
Zum Sonnenuntergang total überfüllt.
Die Stufenpyramide hat fünf quadratische Terrassen, dann zwei achteckige Zwischenstufen und schließlich den klassischen zylindrischen Stupa-Aufbau mit Glocke, Turban, doppeltem Lotus, Bananenknospe und Hti. An den vier Seiten führen bis zur fünften Terrasse Treppen hinauf. Früher dienten sie den Gläubigen, damit sie die inzwischen verschwundenen Terrakotta-Platten mit Szenen aus den Jatakas auf den einzelnen Terrassen erreichen konnten; heutzutage steigen Touristen hinauf, um den Sonnenuntergang zu bewundern.
Wir natürlich auch.
Hi there,
This week's task for Macro Mondays was "Tradition."
Every year at Christmastime, I search for these very dark chocolate sticks that have mint centres. They are quite hard to find and sell out quickly, so I was delighted to score a box of them this year. HMM and Happy Holidays!
Thank you for looking and for leaving me a comment. Have a delightful day and week!

my entry for Macro Monday...
Every year at Christmas time, I bake at least 8 varieties of cookies to give out to my family and friends and I always make these Hershey Kiss Pretzels to add in....
I found 250*F for 7 minutes melts the chocolate perfectly then you add the topper... I used Peanut Butter M&M's because they're larger and easier to handle.
I posted early because maybe you'd like to make them over the weekend! FYI... they're addicting!!!
Hello my amazing Flickr friends !
Today is a red day at Color my world Daily and the theme at Macro Mondays is tradition. As we all know, Red Lady just finished to set up her Christmas tree. She is super late : usually the Christmas tree is up at the beginning of December but this year is an exception. This delay is caused by a total lack of christmasy feeling this year ( blame it on the pandemic… ). However, the Christmas tree is one tradition Red Lady wants to maintain at any cost ! Even if she has to set up the tree at the very last minute, 23h55 on December the 23rd, she will do it !
Have beautiful day my friends ! Mucho, mucho amor for you all !!
Shortly (next week), I will take few days off from Flickr my friends ! I want to spend some time with my family, so I will not have time to take pictures. But dont you worry, I will be back in 2022 for sure !
Thank you so much for all your lovely comments / favs/ general support / happy thoughts!! Stay safe and well!!
Biarritz lies on the Bay of Biscay, on the Atlantic coast, in southwestern France. Unlike any other part of France. The region has its own language, cultural landscape, architecture, and culinary traditions. The land here is breathtakingly distinctive— with the turquoise blue waters, wild coastline, and rugged foothills of the Pyrenees

This year is different, but a good "different"...
After 2020 we appreciate more the time we spend with family and friends...
We invest in making memories that count...
Theyyam consists of traditions, rituals and customs associated with temples and sacred groves of Malabar. It broadly encompasses Hindu ritualistic tenets. The people of the region consider Theyyam itself as a channel to a god and they thus seek blessings from Theyyam.
Sempervivum tectorum, the common houseleek, is a species of flowering plant in the family Crassulaceae, native to the mountains of southern Europe, cultivated in the whole of Europe for its appearance and a Roman tradition claiming that it protects buildings against lightning strikes.
The name Sempervivum has its origin in the Latin semper ('always') and vivus ('living'), because this perennial plant keeps its leaves in winter and is very resistant to difficult conditions of growth.
The specific epithet tectorum means 'of house roofs', referring to a traditional location for these plants.
The hairs that fringe the leaves can be seen on close inspection.

On a recent trip to Door County Wisconsin, I stopped by the legendary Anderson Dock.
When I first got there to scope it out, it was raining with a sustained wind of at least 20-30 MPH. Not real good odds of getting a picture. As I waited around for sunset, the rain finally stopped and the sun poked out for just a few minutes to get this shot. I felt fortunate to get something for my trouble.
Per the Door County Pulse website... After Norwegian brothers Aslag and Halvor Anderson recognized the need for a deepwater dock in Ephraim, they constructed one in 1858. Throughout the 1880s, steamers arriving at the dock — most notably from the Goodrich Transportation Company — brought much-needed goods and much-appreciated tourists, and this activity ultimately vitalized Ephraim. Although the dock’s warehouse — the present-day Hardy Gallery — was built to store merchandise, it became a visible reminder of the sailors and ships that had stopped there.
Emily Irwin, outreach director and curator for the Ephraim Historical Foundation, explained that sailors arriving in Ephraim painted the name of their ship and the date on the side of the building as a way to mark their visit.
It’s a bit of a mystery exactly when the graffiti tradition began, but sailors were known to write on the warehouse from around 1910 into the 1950s, perhaps to express their relief and gratitude for a safe passage through the notorious Death’s Door waters, or simply to commemorate their arrival in Ephraim.
In 1949, the Ephraim Historical Foundation purchased the dock and warehouse from the Anderson family, and in 1961, the foundation leased the building to the Hardy Gallery. Through these shifts, however, the graffiti tradition has remained intact, with the public picking up where the sailors left off.
For Macro Mondays: "Tradition"
Every year we buy a new ornament to decorate our house at Christmas. This time we bought this adorable little rocking horse.
The "New Harbour" in Bremerhaven not only attracts many tourists. It has always been a meeting place for tall ships. Unfortunately it is very quiet due to Corona. Only the local ships, like here the historic cog, are moored at the quay wall.
Der "Neue Hafen" in Bremerhaven zieht mittlerweile nicht nur viele Touristen an. Schon immer war es ein Treffpunkt für Großsegler. Leider ist es durch Corona sehr ruhig. Nur die einheimischen Schiffe, wie hier die historische Kogge liegen an der Kaimauer.
Amanita muscaria, commonly known as the fly agaric (pronounced /ˈ or fly Amanita (pronounced , is a poisonous and psychoactive basidiomycete fungus, one of many in the genus Amanita. Native throughout the temperate and boreal regions of the Northern Hemisphere, Amanita muscaria has been unintentionally introduced to many countries in the Southern Hemisphere, generally as a symbiont with pine plantations, and is now a true cosmopolitan species. It associates with various deciduous and coniferous trees. The quintessential toadstool, it is a large white-gilled, white-spotted, usually deep red mushroom, one of the most recognizable and widely encountered in popular culture. Several subspecies, with differing cap colour have been recognised to date, including the brown regalis (considered a separate species), the yellow-orange flavivolata, guessowii, and formosa, and the pinkish persicina. Genetic studies published in 2006 and 2008 show several sharply delineated clades which may represent separate species.
Although generally considered poisonous, deaths are extremely rare, and it has been consumed as a food in parts of Europe, Asia, and North America after parboiling in water. Amanita muscaria is now primarily famed for its hallucinogenic properties, with its main psychoactive constituent being the compound muscimol. It was used as an intoxicant and entheogen by the peoples of Siberia and has a religious significance in these cultures. There has been much speculation on traditional use of this mushroom as an intoxicant in places other than Siberia; however, such traditions are far less well-documented.

My family celebrates our Viking heritage on Christmas eve with traditional Swedish food and drink.
Mitt bidrag till fotosöndag, tema tradition .
Enligt den julianska kalendern, som gällde på medeltiden – var den så kallade lussenatten 13 december den längsta natten på året i Sverige, vintersolståndet. Då härjade de mörka makterna som värst. Människorna höll sig vakna genom hela natten för att slippa drabbas av ondskans krafter. För att inte somna frossade människorna i mat.
Construido en el siglo XV, de estilo renacentista, con planta rectangular, se estructura en dos cuerpos: planta baja realizada en granito con arcos de medio punto con capiteles de tradición clásica y planta alta adintelada combinando piedra y madera. En uno de los laterales se conserva el sepulcro de la condesa Fronilde Fernández, dama encargada de la anexión de éste monasterio a la orden del Cister, en el año 1175.
Cloister of the Cistercian Monastery of Ferreira de Pantón.
Built in the fifteenth century, Renaissance style, with rectangular plant, it is structured in two bodies: ground floor made of granite with half-point arches with capitals of classic tradition and upper floor combining stone and wood. On one side is preserved the tomb of Countess Fronilde Fernández, lady in charge of the annexation of this monastery to the order of the Cistercian, in the year 1175.

The Goritsky Monastery of Dormition (Russian: Успенский Горицкий монастырь) was a Russian Orthodox monastery in Pereslavl-Zalessky, Russia.
It was supposedly established in the early 14th century during the reign of Ivan I of Moscow (Ivan Kalita). In 1382 Tokhtamysh Khan destroyed the town and the monastery with it. According to the legend, Grand Princess Eudoxia of Moscow arrived as a pilgrim the day before the attack and managed to escape the Horde on a raft, covered by fog of the Pleshcheyevo lake. In gratitude for the miraculous salvation, she rebuilt the monastery and established a tradition of Easter rides on rafts across the lake.
All the monastery's manuscripts were destroyed by a fire on June 12, 1722, which is why little is known about its history.
No original architecture was preserved. The oldest parts of the preserved ensemble date to the 17-18th centuries.
The monastery was closed in 1788. In 1919 the Pereslavl-Zalessky Historical Museum was established within its territory.
