The Karoo. A hauntingly beautiful part of the country. Weirdly I found the landscape depressing as a kid.

I got very sidetracked with other things, but before the year's end at least, I wanted to thank you all for sharing your wonderful and candid photos. I very much enjoyed taking a peek at your corner of the world. If you're up for it, I'd like to keep things going and I'll try to stop by a bit more often.

The following are pictures of Christmas fairs in the Romanian cities of Cluj-Napoca, Craiova, Oradea, and Sibiu.

I wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

InkPanther: A meteorological observatory and a restaurant on Śnieżka Mountain, just next to a Czech-Polish border.
As another user pointed out, it looks sc-fi, close to a star wars movie.

Might as well add a picture from the other one too:

https://postimages.org/ is a lot more straight forward.
Then, link directly to the actual png or jpg, like this.

Appreciate the tip, I'll keep that in mind.

Ice_Mage: Anyone feel like participating in a sightseeing game? Share a picture from your country. Any kind you like, just as long as it doesn't go against the forum rules.

I'll start: rock carving of Decebalus, near Orșova, Romania.
So that's where the rockbiter went after the neverending story. :P
Switching gears for a bit (because I'm hungry, LOL), stuffed tomatoes are a common appetizer for special occasions around here. I didn't have any last year, and I kind of miss them now.

Image source is retete-usoare.info though you don't need to bother to machine translate it. I'm sure another recipe in English (or your own language) would do fine.

By the way, I'm hosting a little giveaway right now. Stop on by and see if you're interested in one of the three games.

Very pretty scenery. The first image feels like it should be accompanied by the Windows XP startup sound.

Nice shot! What a whimsical spot to hold a Christmas market.
