Here's also a link to a site containing brief information about Estonia.

Tech Day

This is Estonian rally star Urmo Aava. He was in the "Motorex 2006" show today kindly sharing autographed postcards. Mr Aava still drives a JWRC car Suzuki. I hope we see him in real WRC one fine day, but we should also be ready for the worst scenario, as there are big money in WRC/F1 game, so they are like some competitiors (rumours say F1 wants to kick WRC).

If you haven't seen how the heart of the Suzuki looks, here it is:



Markko Martin was even more famous lately but he decided to step back from WRC arena last year. Mr Martin does not like to talk too much, so we don't know the exact reasons. I believe he is remembered as a Ford Focus driver who won outstanding bronze medal in WRC back to 2004. He has also won many rallies. Respect, Markko.

Okay what else did I see in Motorex. First, I believe I last visited this exhibition back in 1995. Today is more like a show, a lot of cute girls hanging around, a lot of performances and games, and if you do not play music so loud that your ears hurt, you don't rule. In comparison the exhibition was a lot larger also. Sitting in a new car is a good feeling, and car manufacturers know that, too :P We all want new, stylish, economic, safe cars with extras, don't we :P

Now that's interior of the Saab 93 - marvellous. Stylish design, automatic transmission, perhaps some 2.o Turbo Engine.


Okay, I'll go on with it some other day. It was a great experience over eleven years :)

april :)

.. it's a very special day today :) it's my wife's birthday! Happy birthday! :) .. which also means that the day is very busy and I have no time to update my blog again.. ugh.. :P

Pic is from back to 2004, "leaving Heltermaa Port" haha, sun, clouds & sky is saves us when there's nothing else particular to shoot :P .. I had a lovely Panasonic FZ10 camera these times, this was my first, and I'd recommend it to anyone.. aha. I have a plan to review some digicams and other tech stuff one day, so let's see it I can handle it :-)

shallalaa

shallalaa, i'm lazy updating my blog.
but let's see how it goes in near future - who knows.

Two years ago I wanted to start a freelance project - dlancer.net freelance community. One of my friends even helped me with starting the phpBB forum. However it seems I'm not a good project manager :) and these days, we have tons of forums out there, don't we. So my apologies for all who joined this forum.

I'm patiently waiting for the trees and plants to becobe green. Tired of gray landscapes and even grayer clouds. The photo is from April 10th, now that's some Estonian landscape. Looks a bit muddy though, I guess I should use film in summer (instead of digital, which is muddy, muddy, MUDDY. OR I haven't found the right one).

Estonian lead ornitologists also announce, that it would be great to watch birds someday these days. I totally agree. There are many of these little warblers hanging around here in spring, so if you have a second to visit forests, just do it.

Simple Minds..

edit: 22.april 2006 - here's finally the only pic from the concert:

.. performs live well :) music is a sophisticated piece of art, and I'm glad to see that there are still good musicians among all this crap available today. So the concert was very good, maybe a bit loud in terms of sound for my ears, but hey I might have stupid ears :) ..

Simple Minds is a kind of music that you might consider buying a few albums on your CD-shelf. It is powerful, vital music, that makes your hair rise and fears fall. There are other great artists too, but this is another topic :-) .. (I'll try to upload a pic later - i have one tiny mp-camera pic :P)

I hope this blog won't turn "photos only" :)

anyway, we are waiting for spring here in Estonia, but as with today, still snow here and there, and below zero here and there.
