Re: I can add some cows in Gruyère (none / 1)

Is it a Cow Parade, Fran?

Great, there seems to be a real cowmania.

Re: I can add some cows in...Sultanahmet.. (4.00 / 3)

For a while, these cows seemed to be stalking me.

They were the absolute (and completely unexpected) highlight of the visit for the children when we went to Prague. And then Manchester.

They were so excited when they saw the Cow Parade banners in Istanbul-but there were no cows anywhere and the tourist information office could tell us nothing.

This picture was taken on our last morning, when we went for one final walk (and simit!) and discovered cows had sprung up in the night!

Looks like the next Cow Parade will be in Madrid.

I hope somebody will take pictures for us (hint). :)

Thanks, for the information Sassafras! I must admit to my ignorance and not knowing about the cow parade. Now, that you mention it, I seem to remember seeing cows in Paris after meeting, but can not find the pictures. :-(

My Prague and Manchester cows (and photographs of bears in Berlin) aren't digital. The best are in an album and are probably stuck down beyond retrieval for scanning...

I get the drift, but the page for the Madrid parade doesn´t open for me. If you see the dates, please let me know and I´ll do it.

Sort of, it is an exhibition at a highway restaurant, which has been there for many years, with ever changing cows.
