Real horse power


It's not a common sight, but I recognise the couple and am lucky to catch them on their horse carriage, this time. They're probably out of towner in town for some groceries shopping or deliver their crops. Whatever it is, seeing them is like turning back time...

it is so goooood to see that horse driven cart is still used...first, why not if you get the time, and like shadrach said, it must be quite enjoyable and secondly it doesn't pollute anything...

Jenny said...

Kris, do they really get around that way, it's not just to recreate the olden days? Amazing!

This horse carriage reminds me of TV film series 'Little House on the Praire'. Lovely shot Kris!

John said...

Nicely done, gives a real insight into the little town in Hungary and it's history.

Kris said...

john : i'm trying hard to dig out more photos to represent this little town ;)

tanty : "little house on the prairie" was one of my all time fave. but i think this couple is more advance :)

jugger : hahahah..right, right! the most economical suv!

jenny : they do! and whenever they're around, people stopped to admire their choice of transport. its cool

Kris said...
