Antwerp, Belgium

Hey all… I’m dusting off the long-neglected Punaro.com. It’s going to look like a mess for a bit. Do not adjust your set. It’s not you, it’s me.
I was only going to go to the Terminal for a couple hours to help out with Dyngus Day, but the crowds were so overwhelming that I ended up staying all night to help! It was wildly successful, and there is no doubt that Dyngus Day is becoming a huge event in Buffalo.
Continued from Know when to run Friday came and things were looking up. Other than some caulking and finishing work, we were slated to finish the installation up. First step was, as always, shutting the water off and removing the sink from it’s temporary perch. Since the sink still wasn’t sitting quite right in the…
Just one quick shot tonight. This is the courtyard of Basilica di Sant’Ambrogio. I love the moss growing in the cobblestones, and the light rain really makes the color stand out. Someday I’ll have to come back to this shot and add in a non-blah sky, but for now… just look at everything else. 🙂
Ciao Italia! We have finally moved on to Germany! Düsseldorf was our only stop, and my photos are all from the Altstadt (old city). While there wasn’t snow, it was cold along the Rhine, yet there were still a ton of people walking around and, of course, drinking Altbier. But more on that later. Here’s…
Here’s a cool video that shows you what makes Buffalo special – what we have that other newer cities never will. Architecture!
Hi! I write you for different reasons. The first one to tell you I enjoyed your pics from Belgium. I went there last year and I think it’s an awesome place. The other reason is because we share the same lastname, this is: Punaro. I am mexican, and back there all the people that share this lastname are the descendents of the late Mr. José Asuncion Punaro (this is my grandfather from my mother’s side). The funny thing is that we don’t know the origen of the Punaro name. So, each time I have a chance, I seach to see if by any chance I find a clue. Some time ago I was told it is from northen Italy. Do you have an idea? Thank and hope you don’t bother for using this space that I imagine it’s reserved for your family and close friends.
The name does originate in Italy. Somewhere, I have some images of Ellis Island records of my ancestors coming over to the U.S. I’ll post them when I have a chance. I do not know where the Mexican branch would have started!
