The countown


This´s the oldest man in our town. He´s now 98 years old and he´ll definitly ´ll make the 100! ; ) ... He´s still full of live and joy and so he also joined the yearly "Mardi Gras"-festival in our town. This time he went as a "countown" ... on the left side you can see the ages 98-99-100 and on the right side stands "Der Countown läuft..." which means directly translated "the countown counts".. .. so.. well.. that´s not really a good translation, but.. that´s what you can see there.

  1. wow, he looks like he's in his 70s maybe, but not almost 100! It's amazing how well he aged. I wonder if Austrians just age nicely.

    Maybe "the countdown begins" is a good translation? Whatever it is, I think I know what you mean.
