'Summer stories' series: Badacsony vacation

It's high time to continue my summer stories series with our vacation at Badacsony.
Instead of writing lengthy sentences, enjoy the best pictures -and my comments on them.
First of all, let's see the protagonists:)

This is me,

and here are we.
Here we gooooo! Where? To Lake Balaton!

Badacsony at dawn, on the 18th of August (more pictures of and comments on this day a little bit later:))

The beautiful landscape of Badacsony

One hot day (crazy us departured around noon..)we went to the Badacsony hills: this is the path we walked up on (partly, 'cause later on the path became even more path-like, which mostly means rocky dirt roads)

On our way we saw vineyards

and a bunch of grape leaves (I love them so much that I had to take a dozen pictures of them).

Grape leaves here

and grape leaves there. Grape leaves around everywhere...
Okay, I think that was enough of the beloved grape leaves...so now let's turn to the grapes themselves. Relax, just kidding;) (tricky question: which of the following pictures depict real grapes?)


We also drank (okay, only tasted) the red and white product of the grapes: the various Badacsony wines
that made us (mainly me) a little bit dizzy...

Arriving at the top of the hill, another mania of mine appeared: photographing landscape with the presence of trees (see, normal people usually avoid the presence of any kind of inhibitors that disturb effective photo-taking acts. On the contrary, I consciously and dauntlessly seek for the presence of these 'inhibitor-creatures', since I believe they make photos more unique:)) Take a look and make a decision of your own.




When it was enough of trees, then came the clouds,


and when nature photos became too natural (due to all those trees and clouds), a little human presence could be added, too.



All in all, we had a great time!
