National Holiday and Open Day.

Good evening people! I hope you all had a blessed Wednesday and are feeling great!

Here in Austria today has been one of the biggest holidays - the National holiday, so (almost) everyone got the day off. Our parliament had the Open Day, so everyone was able to visit it for free. I, of course, had to go, and I had some great time! :) The only bad side of it was, that there were waaaay too many people, so it was not that comfortable. But in the end everything was awesome. ^.^ Well, here are the photos I made:

After that, I went for a longer walk around the centre of the city, and saw the Blood Donation Bus standing there, and took my chance to donate blood.

With me this doesn't work very well every time, because I tend to have the hemoglobin deficiency, so I was rejected a few times. :/ But this time it worked and I was sooo happyy!! Well, it didn't go that smoothly because I have pretty thin veins, and they are also hard to find, so the doctor had to prick my arm a several times. :( Well, well, that's the way it goes. Anyway I managed to get one photo of myself directly after it all has ended:

Now, I have to say that I recommend it to everyone who is able and allowed to donate blood, to do it! You can never know when you will need it yourself, so it's a very humane gesture to donate. And it is also very healthy for your spinal cord, and also for the whole vascular system. :) Do it! :)

Now I have to make myself ready for tomorrow, since it will be a new day... Sleep well everyone! Good night!

Aleksandra.
