Kékszalag (Blue-stripe) is told the most grandious, lake-based regatta within Europe. This Balaton tradition goes back to 1934, when the first regatta was taken place. This year more than 600 yachts entered the game and were competing during the two-days, 80 miles (150km) long route.

The recent Kékszalag appreciated good and interesting weather conditions the last weekend.

Yesterday 7:15pm at the Telki Festival the popular hungarian rock group Ismerős Arcok (Aquainted Faces) performed for the joy of the audience. Though we've planned to go to the Törökbálint Albert Wass evening scheduled by today, upon my wife's proposal we decided to participate the Telki concert too. This way we attended it with Katie. Thanks Godness, we were not the only representatives of the doyen generation. From two to seventy-two every age cluster gave appearance at the concert.

Figyelemre érdemes, hogy egy csöndes csütörtök délután hány egyszerű szurkoló várja a VG befutót a mólón.
