The new consulate General Office was officially inaugurated today, ( 7 September 2007) by Hon. Rohitha Bogollagama, Minister of Foreign Affairs of Sri Lanka. The Minister for Federal and European Affairs of State of Hesse, Mr Volker Hoff, the Chairman of the City Parliament of Frankfurt, Mr Bührmann, the Deputy Police Chief of Frankfurt and a host of other German and Sri Lankan dignitaries attended the opening ceremony.
The programme comprised of hoisting of the National flag, singing of National Anthem, lighting of oil lamp and religious observances. The Buddhist religious observances were conducted by Ven. Rathmale Punnarathana Thero, while Hindu, Christian and Muslim observances were conducted by Rev. Muralidharan, Rev. Father Bernard Ehlen and Rev. Sabegi Davari, respectively.
Ambassador Jayantha Palipane welcomed the Foreign Minister and the guests. Addressing the invitees Foreign Minister Bogollagama explained the rationale for shifting the Consulate from Bonn to Frankfurt. He said the Consulate was relocated in Frankfurt to promote Sri Lanka's interests more aggressively including investment, trade and tourism and also to service the expatriate community in the Hesse area.
Frankfurt as the economic hub of Europe's largest economy is also home to one of the continental Europe's busiest airports. Sri Lanka Airlines operates four flights a week from Frankfurt to Colombo and is exploring the possibility of having daily flights. Sri Lanka tourism office is also located in Frankfurt. European Central Bank, other major financial institutions are located in Frankfurt.
The Minister for Federal and European Affairs of State of Hessen also made a brief speech. The new Consul General, Mr Buddhi Athauda proposed the vote of thanks. The Hon. Minister of Foreign Affairs was interviewed by Deutsche Welle World, a well know TV station in Germany. At the end of the ceremony, the guests were invited for a Sri Lankan lunch.

The Consulate General of Italy, formerly the Henry P. and Kate T. Davison House, at 690 Park Avenue, was built by Walker & Gillette in 1917. The northern terminus of four landmark townhouses on this block, called Pyne-Davison Blockfront due to the uniform architectural quality, this English Georgian-style brick house was erected as a residence for Henry Pomeroy Davison, one of the founders of the Bankers Trust and a partner of J.P. Morgan. The building remained a residence some time after his death. Marshall Field, Anson W. Burchard, Henry the thirt-third, Prince of Reuss and Harry Payne Bingham all lived there. In 1952 it was converted into the Italian consulate.
The Henry P. and Kate T. Davison House was designated a landmark by the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission in 1970.

The British Foreign Office advises against visiting Transnistria as they have no jurisdiction in the area. That isn't strictly speaking true - Transnistria is still a part of Moldova so the British embassy in Moldova would be the ones to turn to if you have problems. But try telling that to the authorities in Transnistria.
=Series Description=
These are the photos from my trip to Transnistria, a de facto independent region of Moldova.
I didn't have time to add a comment to this last night. The picture is of what appears to be a MkII Ford Consul/Zephyr. In fact there are 3 or 4 of them in this small yard in Acton Road, Long Eaton. The person who runs this little off-the-beaten-track garage, is clearly an enthusiastic follower of the type.

The Colombian Consulate General's residence. Starting from close to the 'Plaza de España', the wide, tree-lined 'Avenida de Palmera' runs north-south and is home to some of the most architecturally impressive private residences in the city - though many have now been taken over as embassies and/or consulate buildings. Seville, itself, is the capital of Andalucia and with a population of over 700,000 is Spain's 4th largest city. Situated on a plain of the River Guadalquivir, it has a history dating back to 200BC when legend has it that it was founded by Hercules. Originally it was known as 'Hispalis' under the Romans and 'Isbiliya' when under the control of the Moors. The high point in its history, not unsurprisingly, followed the discovery of America in 1492. It is a truly wonderful city to visit although in the summer months it gets very hot with temperatures routinely in excess of 40° C (104° F). Indeed, Seville, is generally regarded as the hottest city in Europe so avoid in July and August! There's so much to see in the city, starting as most visitors do with a first view of the city's emblematic 'Giralda', the bell tower of the cathedral, one of the largest in the world. There's the Alcázar Palace and gardens - perhaps not rivalling the Alhambra in its scale and architectural beauty - but not far off! Other treasures include the 'Casa de Pilatos', the 'Torre del Oro', the Ayuntaminto (Town Hall), the 'Archivo General de Indias' (where the historical records of the American continent are kept), the 'Museo de Bellas Artes' (Museum of Fine Arts) which is the second largest picture gallery in Spain. and, of course, many beautiful and revered parish churches, convents and numerous palaces. But for all its magnificent monuments, architecture and fascinating history, Seville is universally admired for being a joyous town; with 'Sevillanos' known for their wit, sparkle and vitality - hardly surprising given its association with Carmen, Don Juan and Figaro! 'Sevillanos' are great actors and put on an extraordinary performance at their annual 'Feria de Abril', a week-long party of drink, food and dance which takes place day and night in more than a thousand especially constructed tents. But above all it allows the men to parade on their fine horses and the women to dance in brilliantly coloured gypsy dresses. Immediately before that is Holy Week, or 'Semana Santa', a religious festival where hooded penitents march In long processions followed by huge baroque floats on which sit images of the Virgin or Christ, surrounded by cheerful crowds. Both of these events are 'must-sees' with the proviso that hotel bookings in the city should be made many months (if not years) beforehand and an acceptance that large, boisterous, always enthusiastic crowds are very much the order of the day. Wandering the tiny side streets of Seville, particularly the Jewish quarter, the 'Barrio Santa Cruz', and the vibrant (former gypsy) quarter of 'Triana', is a delight too; especially when sufficient time is set aside to sample some traditional tapas, drink some locally produced manzanilla (fino sherry) or listen to some impromptu flamenco. Seville has everything and then some! There are plenty more photos of Seville and other Spanish towns/locations if you take a look at my 'Albums' page, www.flickr.com/photos/36623892@N00/sets/ - thank you.
