Summer pictures, or Boreks in Croatia (and Hungary)


I'd understood that about bushfires, I didn't realise it was the case around the Mediterranean too, thanks!

Hot, dry, plenty of conifers - it must burn.

The girl that you see is just picking her nose. Sigh. There are thousands of ways of wasting a picture.
You found her... our middle son's soul-mate! (glad the link got bumped again... I was thinking the season wasn't quite right...)

I remember mermaids/sirens/syreny translation difficulties I caused once.

I almost forgot - these pictures were taken especially for jtbell.
Oops, somehow I missed this originally, although I remember the thread. I only saw it just now because someone posted spam at the end of the thread and I cleaned it up. Belated thanks.

Budapest trams - end stop:



and inside - doors on both sides (closed on the left, open behind the man reading a newspaper):



No idea about proper English nomenclature, but they can go in either direction (cabins for drivers on each end of the tram), so they don't need a rail loop at the end of line. No such trams in Warsaw, I am not sure if they are used in other Polish cities.
In the US, railfans usually call these "double-ended" versus "single-ended" for the ones that need a loop. I think over here only Boston, Philadelphia and Toronto still use single-ended trams. All three are remnants of old tram systems. The rest (mostly built in the modern era) are double-ended. Double-ended trams are more expensive because they need two complete sets of controls, but loops for single-ended ones cost money for the extra track and usually some land at the turnaround point, or even tunnels if they run underground.
