The czechs are drinking even more beer than the bavarians ...
I like this place - with its view and trees. I would be happy to take a seat in the sun and drink plenty of beer.

Perhaps she is seriously reflecting on her life style.

Christiane: As the Wheaties commercial says, Breakfast of Champions! Gert: I don't think it was her first beer. As I always say, it's my second drink, but I have had a few before. Looks like she's already worked her way through a few cigarette boxes too; Michail: You have some very nice street as well, wonderful desperate scenes; Karen: The clock says 1130, but I think I was actually an hour behind at 1030.

A6ata: Letna parks has the best views overlooking Praha bridges over the Vltava. Best to get there in the morning to shoot with the sun from behind. Hence, I was there early, well, early after my night of drinking Czech beer and Jaegermeister; Mietzi: They are drinking more beer than even Gert! At less than a euro a beer and with such great drafts, who can blame them. From my shots, it appears that women are drinking more than the guys :)

Lorien: My exact breakfast this morning; Marina: Actually, I probably could have used some eggs and ham this morning if I had remembered to go shopping yesterday. Damned grocery stores are all closed in Oslo on Sundays; Silke: Beer, coffee and cigarettes could be a good breakfast treat. One to ease the nerves from a night of drinking and the other two to awaken to the night blended into another day.

Kleio: Reflecting? Nah, she has a great life ;) Ran: Beer and cereal is a good combination. Just make sure you have a vitamin pill as well, for that extra healthy feeling; Ellen: This is an excellent park, although it is quite a little climp up above the city. In Czech, I think that beer is good any time of day; Blau: Oh yes, I think that Czechs are notorious tea drinkers ;)

Marina: It could be epple juice or it could be Becherovka and some coffee. Yikes, that would be a helluva combination; Patric8k: I am only doing healthy things when in Praha, like a trip to Amsterdam ;) Couleurs: Les cheveux rouges sont populaires avec les filles tcheques, il sont un point culminant a leurs cheveux bruns. Mon meilleur ami Monika emploie la meme combinaison.

nice framing and background interest with the church. I like the light
and shadows on the tables and how that bit of light sets off her red hair.
She looks young enough to be able to handle that breakfast...the brekkie of champions .........for me it would just put hair on my chest :) not pretty.

what a great place to sit. I would like to move it and have it installed a short walk from my place, please. :-)

Nilgn: I think that you have picked up on the central theme, bier for breakfast. You don't do that in Turkey? Auwa: Does that mean I should shave your chest? Wildcats: I think she is out of cigarettes, but the beer vendor is right behind me. He opens very early, lots of thirsty customers; Patric8k: It's a long way up from table to mouth with 500ml, a good workout when performed with high repetitions.

Ron: I think she has reached the point of the pause that refreshes; Asia: Indeed, I think the Polish girls know all about this... Tomasz: I like Czech bier. Back in Chicago, there is Radegast on tap at Operetta on Fullerton. One can usually buy a Pilsner Urquell or Staropramen as well. I was enjoying some Staro (brewed in Praha) on draft as well as Budvar in Praha. Maybe it was just fresher, but it tasted better than Okocim; Geek: No need to move at anything. I am sure that you could pitch a tent right there.

auwa says:

:) um, no! I could shave my own chest if it needed it . Thankfully it doesn't need it yet !

racingsquirrel says:

Auwa: Haha, just an offer. You know it's love when the back is not the only thing that gets shaved; Pinezka: What a cute little icon! Thanks for stopping in.
