SUNFLOWERS!

My most favorite time of year in Europe: early July when thousands and thousands of sunflowers are in bloom. It's absolutely stunning. Before I ever came to Europe I saw the fields of sunflowers in the film "Everything is Illuminated" (one of my favorites). It was so magical to see that it really is like that. Acres and acres of beautiful sunflowers. 

On one of our little adventures last week, we pulled over to finally take some decent pictures of these beautiful sunflowers---I've usually only been in a train or bus seeing all of them since you have to leave the city to see them. It was pretty funny because SO many people kept honking at us and waving just out of bafflement that we were pulled over taking tons of pictures of sunflowers. 



Okinawa's sunflowers are beautiful, but they have NOTHING on the fields of Romania. It's gorgeous here.
