That Texensis =P~ :mrgreen:
When thousands of foes unite, for my ruins plot–
If only You remain by my side, I then fear not!
I live for a hoped union with thee, it is my desired prize–
Or all my moments are spent- in the fright of demise!

Hello Majcka,
it seems that you spent a whole month's salary on all those succulents and cacti. I have not even included the gasoline money. :)
By the way, where is Stainz located? I did read the sign "Internationale Kakteentage", which of course translates into "International Cacti Days".
So I assume, that Stainz must be either located in Germany or in Austria, or even perhaps Switzerland.
Well, wherever this event took place, I bet you did have fun looking at (and purchasing) all these plants.

Harald. You don't have to worry about my month's salary stayed there in Stainz. It is locatted in Austria about 200 km from me. So the gasoline cost is about 34 Euros. I didn't took an Austrian highway so i didn't need their Vinjeta (the prepayd card for a hihgway you have to buy if you want to travel highway) That plants I Bought wasn't very expencive. I spent 40 euros on them. And 2 euros for cofee and one lotery ticket. That (76 eur) would be way under my month salary. :lol:

And yes, Harald. I had spectacular time. Infact it was so good I think I will go to similar thing wery soon. Only ELK is too far. ](*,) It is about 1300 km avay from me. It yould took me about 14 hours driving + all expences.

So maybe Pordenone (Italy) or some Cacti borse in Budapest (Hungary). I don't know.

You did very well on your trip! A bargain in fact! If you spent a total of 76 Euros that equals to $101.41 for everything, including gas and coffee! Good job, Maja!!

The plants are beautiful!!!!
