"Bardzo prawdopodobne, że początek swego istnienia husarze zawdzięczają Serbom. Po klęsce na Kosowym Polu w roku 1389 wszędzie szukali okazji do pomsty na Turkach.
Jan Długosz zapisał pod rokiem 1463, że w bitwie nad Sawą bił się Cohors Raczanorum (oddział Raców - Serbów). Po śmierci króla Macieja Korwina Serbowie udali się do Polski, aby kontynuować walkę z Turkami po usarsku."
http://www.angelfire.com/mi4/polcrt/WingedHussar.html
"The hussar concept began in Serbia, near the end of the 14th century. In the 16th century, painted wings or winged claws began to appear on cavalry shields. Wings were originally attached to the saddle and later to the back. In 1645, Col. Szczodrowski was said to have used ostrich wings.
In 1500, the Polish Treasury books make reference to hussars. Early on, they were foreign mercenaries, and were called Racowie from "Rascia" a word meaning "of Serbia." They came from the Serbian state of Ras."

I'd like to go to Chile, U.S...only some places, Australia, fiji, Finland, Amazon, Malaysia, India and Egypt.

Have only been Morocco, too many times.

London has great historical sites and great places to visit, well some parts, any body travelling to Europe should go!

(3.5 years), and now back in California. :)

Have never been further east than Jerusalem. Have never been more west of British Columbia. Never have been more North of Vancouver. Never have been more south than Puerto Rico.

Never been higher than perhaps a few miles from the clouds.. Have never been lower than the Dead Sea.

I didn't like Spain the first couple of months we were there (I was big and pregnant with my second daughter then...sick as a dog!) But after she was born and I got to see more of our surroundings, I fell for the place. I think what got me was the ease of the Spanish people. No stress, 2 hour siestas...lol Beautiful sights and some history I didn't know existed there.

Come to think of it, I lost the most weight when we lived in Spain, also. LOL We use to go out to Tapa resturants all of the time. Plus, I found myself growing to like the bitter taste of olive oil there. LOL We lived in El Puerto de Santa Maria....right on the beach! What a beautiful sight that was. I don't know what was more appealing though...hanging the clothes out to dry (simplicity) or lounging on the huge, beautifully tiled balcony we had. :) One of the highlights definately wasn't the sound of the first Spaniard man, waking everyone up at zero-dark-thirty because he thought we all had to be up with him. lol

Come to think of it, I lost the most weight when we lived in Spain, also. LOL We use to go out to Tapa resturants all of the time. Plus, I found myself growing to like the bitter taste of olive oil there. LOL We lived in El Puerto de Santa Maria....right on the beach! What a beautiful sight that was. I don't know what was more appealing though...hanging the clothes out to dry (simplicity) or lounging on the huge, beautifully tiled balcony we had. :) One of the highlights definately wasn't the sound of the first Spaniard man, waking everyone up at zero-dark-thirty because he thought we all had to be up with him. lol

Spain is very beautiful, funny I had a Spain man waking me up at that time too every morning  :::D :::D

No concept of sleep time, because they sleep during the day  :D :D
Our's was banging on a pot, or ringing a bell at 6am...screaming "WAKE UP!!!" It was both interesting and unnerving at the same time...for 7 months until we qualified for base housing. lol

LOL Ours,  use to walk in without knocking and yell "are you awake! breakfast!"
