Yes Letty, on it's northern border.
Much, much further south.
Okay, let me recap. It borders Russia but is to the North of that border. Tell me if it's on this map, Dutchy:
Yes it does Letty, but I suppose the Ukraine is now no longer part of the original USSR?
Great hint, Dutchy. <smile> Is the place a cathedral, and if so, is it in Kiev, Ukraine?
It is a chuch, something special about it in that Country, but it is not Kiev or the Ukraine for that matter.
Oh, I took that Ukraine as a hint. okay. It's a church with a special meaning. Is it North of the Ukraine?
It is south of the Ukraine, and the paintings sets them aspart from other churches.
As far south as Turkey, Dutchy?
About level, hint: romance has something to do with it.
Ah, Dutchy, it must be Romania, one of the romance languages.
Yes Letty, it is one of the painted churches (outside) in the Bucovina district of Romania.
Wow, my pc is running very slow. Gus is right. It takes a while to wait for pictures to download:
Is it one of these, Dutchy?
Bucovina
This is a region of green, rolling hills dotted with Stephan the Great's small Byzantine churches, some of the most fascinating sights in Romania. There are five Painted Monasteries, whose exterior walls were painted with elaborate depictions of bible stories, still clearly visible after 600 years. In 1993 the painted churches were designated a World Heritage Site by UNESCO.
The five painted churches are: Voronet, Humor, Sucevita, Moldavita and Arbore, each with a uniquely dominant color.
Yes Letty. I don't know exactly which one, but all I was after was the Country.
My word, Dutchy. I understand, honey. Anyway, I guess it's my turn, but out of curiosity, which of those is it?
I need a break, so I shall be back later.
I am going to eat, but here is my place, and it is perfect for this time of year.
Where am I? spooookkkkkkkyyyyyyy
Thanks, Dutchy. You are such a nice guy. Tomorrow, then.
dadPad, you will be amazed where that place is, Aussie, and it ain't Sweden. Hint: Ever watch Ghost Hunters?
