A B-day celebration with pomp and circumstance! - going back in time. Part 2

1965 - I was 13! I was a dreamer! I was just an Adolescent.
Dr Zhivago came out.... I wanted to be a medical doctor. 
It turned out to be.  It's one of my passions through out my entire life. It is not just a profession. It makes part of me.
That same year 
Sound of music came out too! 5 oscars! - Maria became a woman to be! Incorporated too, even having part of my name... by chance!
Whenever I could  I listened the soundtracks and have seen the film endless times...
Even to Nina I sing the "Do, Re, Mi" quite often (since she was a baby... now being five and I am turning into 60!). 
I had a dream...I wanted to visit the hills of Salzburg, I wanted to visit some of the sites of the film, I wanted to breathe the air of that city with the films, the memories I had of that time.... I wanted to listen the music being there. Well, I did it!
With the agreement of my hubby Vicente we went for a long week end in Salzburg!  From Graz to Salzburg driving in direction to the Alps. 
We had a special dinner at Sternbräu. Dinner was served ahead of the show.I was delighted. I wanted to join in. I was happy! I sang along...

I wanted to integrate my memories to that moment... Memories that may be have no significance to anyone  but me!
I believe, the following day was key too as Mozart also belongs to my favorites. And of course the folk music. 
That's the way I started my next decade of life wanting indeed to carry on my dreams integrated to my day to day life; my profession to be part of it. My Maria being Maria.

  3. nossa se lembro nem sei qtas vezes vi o filme e depois levei meus filhos para verem... ! até hoje tenho uma sensação maravilhosa quando ouço..
    I go to the hills when my heart is lonely
    I know I will hear what I´ve heard before
    My heart will be blessed with the sound of music
    And I´ll sing once mor
