There is autumn already: foliage dropping and a farewell has begun.
The man's autumn time, entrance into the old age, a newer, enormous turning point in the life. The autumn of my life is rearranged because of my attacked heart. The values are changed, and what appeared important till now, turns into worthless one. As if we would contemplate our passing life from a new lookout, from a totally other perspective we see all that, which happened to us,.
Oh Lord, the summer was immense; lay your shadow on the sundials and let loose the wind in the fields. Bid the last fruits to be full; give them another two more southerly days, press them to ripeness, and chase the last sweetness into the heavy wine. Oh yes, this autumn brings certainties already for me. I am picking up the sneaking letters in the balcony, and I see it now: as if the tree would want to cover me with its branches.
.Doctors told me, my full recovery should start by light remedial gymnastics on 22 October, if my condition and the last medical examinations will allow it.

| ....add a little "color", the "feel" of the place |
|  | Short guidelines how to write a review on my way First and foremost, do not write about five-star tourist attractions where many people were visiting already; others have certainly done these before you, possibly much better; Look for such places, from where you may see the known sightseeings some other way; Be cautious about the commonplaces, avoid them; people do not need to hear anymore: "it was so sweet, I could not help but smile..." Look for something, which is addible to your story, and for your friends probably interesting, add a little "color", the "feel" of the place; Check your informations rather two times, than never, the devil is in the details; Do not write full guide books, not even if the other members try to do thus, this is not the place of those; Break your rewiew with blank lines, so is much easier to read; Do not split up your tip into a million tips, so is more difficult to get your experiences by your fellows; Last but not least, tell the truth, at least the way you remember it.

| ......a sip in the mouth turning to taste |
|  | The Respect of the Vine The art of the wine tasting is nothing else, than the consumption of the liquid which is worthy of the respect, to which we pay more attention before swallowing. The differentiation of the good and the bad wine after a little time is not heavier, than the recognition of difference between the orange juice squeezed freshly and the store juice diluted with the water. The fragrance, the flavour of the wine unfold in a suitable glass only. Let us forget the coloured glasses; to enjoy the colour is possible in a crystal clear glass only. The long stem of the glass has functional and delight significance. To take the glass is allowed only at its stem, or at its sole, since the fingerprint appearing on the wall spoils a lot on the aesthetic delight of the wine. Let us fill the wine always to the widest dot of the cup, and never full.

|  | Do you want to taste an authentic local food? Do you know, how to find a not touristy, local tavern? No? In this case, if you really want to taste an authentic local food, you should try my way! There are several signs you should take into consideration and look for: The first one is the guests, if the customers are mainly locals then you are probably on the right trace. Also have a look at the tavern, if it does have no huge menus outside at the entrance in several languages displayed that here you can eat a lot of tasty dishes for only 1-2 euro, then you found the place you need. But you are really lucky, if they have even no menus, only shared tables with big bottles of wine and baskets of bread and suggestions from the waiter on what you should have. In this case what else remains for you? The step Number Two of course; Eat the way as the locals do. Ask the waiter to bring in whatever is good, or simply order whatever comes to mind.
