Flag Day is already a well-known and beloved competition among students from five high schools in Bucharest, organized by the Public Diplomacy Section. Participating for the first time, this year’s high schools (Mihai Eminescu, Nicolae Iorga, C.A. Rosetti, Mihail Sadoveanu and Dimitrie Paciurea) developed depictions of all 50 U.S. States and the District of Columbia.
Held in the Embassy’s courtyard for the first time, the 150 students exhibited the displays they created to illustrate representative elements for each of the states, all related to the history, culture and language of the Native Americans. The winners received American books and stationary and had a fun pizza picnic on the lawn.

First time participating, this year's high schools were: Gheorghe Lazar (Bucharest), Mihai Viteazul (Bucharest), Nicolae Balcescu (Oltenita), Decebal (Bucharest) and Ion Neculce (Bucharest).

As ubiquitous as I'd been given to expect. Actually these big flags do look really impressive against a dramatic sky, and I liked the gold eagle at the top of the flagpole here.

Very large 38 star US post flag, 10' x 19'. Said to have hung on the Hull Building along Wall Street on Parade Days. This flag design became the Official United States Flag on July 4th, 1877. A star was added for the admission of Colorado (August 1st 1876) and was to last for 13 years.
Donated to the Scranton Memorial Library in 2013 by Anne Hull. The library then donated the flag to MHS in Jan 2021. Flag is fair-to-poor condition with repairs and tears.

This guy kept waving the Old Hong Kong flag while the Police below him try and convince him to come down. As Police numbers grew, he only increased his intensity. With so many cameras, phones and videos the Police could not do anything but watch.
I think he is still there.
