Hello to everybody! I wish you all my friends, Anne and Maud fans MERRY CHRISTMAS and HAPPY NEW YEAR. Let´s cherish the true meaning of Christmas time :-) As a appreciation of your confidence I provide a holiday greeting card in two variations. You can use them as a wallpaper, too. See you in 2009! Sincerely, Petra from Slovakia |

I just want to stop by and bring you warm winter wishes from Slovakia. Spend your time with yours and let the new year 2008 be the year of your dreams coming true :-) I know I have annouced my site will be redesigned last year. But it is not done so yet. I was so busy and ask for your excuse. I hope I will be maintaining an interesting Anne site once. Until then stay tuned. I am still thinking of my fans and visitors. So I prepare on youtube.com a movie to watch. That movie is called A Fairytale about Slovak Bethlehem (25min in lenght, narrated in slovak, no subtitles). It is worth watching - I want to share a rare thing we have right here in Slovakia. Nowhere you can find something same or similar. Jozef Pekara made it of wood. I am introducing slovak wooden moveable Bethlehem in Rajecka Lesna. Just watch it and enjoy. It shows you how was life in a slovak village once (end of 19th century), including a culture, architecture, crafts, agriculture, traditions, folklore and simply everyday life. All that of wood and moveable. And at the conclusion of the year I want to share some typical carols from here and some modern version. Bye in 2008! And remember „It is not what the world holds for you it is what you bring to it“. I think that quotation is a perfect match to open a new year and to do with it along. For movie click here |
