Newborn Calf
Later this afternoon, our cow –
Mandruta – brought to life a very pretty
calf...a most welcomed addition to our “family”. It couldn’t be other than
pretty, as the word “Mandruta” means “pretty”, but also “proud”…and, as you can
see from the picture, she’s looking exactly like her mother.
It was a special occasion as today we celebrate Dragobetele – the Romanian version of Valentine’s Day. Sure, as you may imagine, everyone loved her from the very first moment.
We haven’t chosen a name for her yet, but anyway, she looked more interested about feeding right away, than to answer to any of the names we have called her. We just hope she’ll grow healthy and be happy at our lodge!

We had to find a way around, but fortunately we cleared the path for the next group…
