Found at The Similepedia Blog; I believe the photo was taken in Romania. (Multumesc = thank you)

muah ha hah ha! I love photos that show the modern world as a confab of almost diametrical opposites.
I am using that as my wallpaper until something more fun comes along. thanks for posting it.
It’s an amusing picture, and quite a comment on Eastern Europe and the Balkans. However, having lived for some time in Romania, I wonder whether it really was taken there. Collar harness is almost unknown in Romania, where the Hungarian-stype breastcollar harness is almost universal. (I suppose that a Romanian might have bought a collar abroad, or been given one by a foreigner.) Also, Romania has just shortsightedly banned horses on main roads and in towns, so I doubt whether the police (usually all too quick to harrass the peasants) would have allowed a cart anywhere near a McDonald’s (whose Romanian outlets are all urban). I’d be tempted to guess that the photo may have been taken in the Ukraine. However, the photographer presumably knows where he or she took the picture. It will be interesting to learn more.
lol! Nice… Well if gas prices keep rising like they have been I might have to resort to this myself:)
Now, THAT’S a Happy Meal.
Blessings,

I live in Wensleydale and the other week we couldn’t get anywhere because the country roads were blocked up with gypsy caravans on their way to Appleby Horse Fair. Although the brightly coloured carriages were beautiful, I couldn’t help getting a little bit exasperated at how the guys were walking alongside the horses. Walking pace doesn’t get anyone anywhere very quickly. However, it is cool when you don’t need a registration plate.
Horses and carts can currently be seen on most Romanian roads
Do the Amish eat at McDonald’s now?
What an interesting blog! I am glad that i ran across it. A fellow down the road from us was featured in the paper as he often rides his horse to town, hitching it at the back of the store. We used to ride our horses to the “root beer stand”, but that was many moons ago.
Отлично!!! Вместо книги на ночь.
thats the funniest thing i have ever seen Romania the land where the past clashes with the present in a beautiful collision
That picture made me smile; I hope you don’t mind – I emailed this link to a few of my friends who I know will love it.
gives new meaning to “sit down and ride”

McDonald’s is everywhere!! The picture might have been staged to show the color contrasts between new and bright and old and drab.
Best wishes for 2010 !
Too Funny! I was in Pennsyvania Amish country a few years back and got a kick out of the “Buggy Parking” at Wal-Mart.
Love the blog…keep up the good work!
That’s awesome a friend of mine had a menonite fellow fix his fence and he showed up with horse and buggy.
