Only God -and perhaps IMDB- knows how long I had been looking forward to this moment.Besides of Matrix and Lord of the Rings, few movies have been powerful enough to change the way I think. One of them, believe it or not, was Groundhog Day, the story of a man who "finds himself living the same day over and over again". Since then, every now and then I find myself thinking about the movie, and wondering about all the what if's of such an occurrence.
However, this weekend I was able to see groundhogs from another perspective. During my recent trip to Italy, the Beggio family took me to Moncenisio, a lake at the French border. Once we checked all the tourist spots, we got ourselves into a groundhog seeking tour. Groundhogs, or at least the French ones, are very careful animals, so if you get somewhat close to them, they will jump into their holes and that's the end of the sighting. However, this time we got lucky, so out of 20 shots of different animals, we got two almost National Geographic worth pictures.

De acuerdo contigo en dos cosas: 1. esa pelicula da mucho que pensar y de hecho yo tambien me encuentro pensando en esa pelicula muy seguido.
2. Las fotos estan geniales, mas aún al verlas las dos juntas.
Gracias Rob. Me alegra saber que no soy el unico fan eterno de esa pelicula :)
