Notes from 7th Feb 2005

I am writing this note backwards in time, but I like to mark this day, because it happens this Monday. We visited my parents and after busy day of arranging all stupid but necessary bureaucratic stuff I finally was sitting and talking with my parents.
The talking turn out to my grandparents and mama brought old photo album. As I was looking at those old pictures I felt like flying back in time. This incredible power of photos is amazing. I saw my grandfather who died when I was young boy. I have felt again walking with him and my sister hands in hand. He in dark suit with hat and smoking cigaret. I was back there.
Than on other page my mother showed me picture of her grandparents and even picture of grandparent of her mother. Those pictures where dated somewhere in 1880.
