Our tour ended up with a visit to Prague. A city where almost everyone who had visited told us beautiful.
It is undeniably beautiful. In addition, my love made a conclusion that any city, with a river runs through it, is beautiful. Based on every city that we had visited, all 5, yes. You are right honey.
And the river, besides adding beautiful touch to the scenery, cools down the temperature a bit. (Hey, it is summer, and the sun is torching hot). Everybody tries their best to enjoy both sunshine and water.
Again, I lost count on what the places we were visiting. Not because there were many places to visit, but this time we just walked around and made ourselves lost in the city. One thing for sure, when we were tired, we were heading back to the river bank.
And usually, besides the riverbank, he was re-ready himself for more and more pictures. The tripod - check, 50-200mm - check, 18-55 mm - check, lens covers all four - check, spare battery - check, card - check, visor - check and the list continued..
Summer in Europe is far different from our hot weather back home. It is dry, my skin flaked and itchy due to excessive dryness. Yeah I know, lotion and sun block, but these two were not enough. I kept complaining about the itchiness. And it killed my mood for providing a good subject for my crazy photographer.
Somewhere, somehow, it is just me. I love being in front of the camera and thank goodness for my camera-friendly ability. Those pictures turn out to be not bad (according to my discretion,
hahaha).
And I think this guy sensed it too, so he encouraged me by capturing memorable shots with feeling and happiness. Just look at his smile.

A glimpse of Prague road
This is a monument created by a Jewish notable lawyer named Frank .... can´t remember. When I looked at it, the first thing that crossed my mind is the aim of Jewish want to control the whole world. Master of puppet like.
Eventually, he learned to smile and pose
At one of the parks, I found a pear tree - fruitful. At first, I wonder, did anybody eat the fruit? It´s a shame to let it waste. Then, this man arrived, shook a bough and ate the fruits. WOW! I wanted that too, so when my husband arrived, I asked me to do a favor and he got me 2 pears. (yes, I am short). The taste? It was the best pear I ever eaten, crunchy, juicy and sweet. Even Zara wanted for second one.

Polska-shirted hubby
I remember this moment what led my hubby to take many photos of us. While he was busy taking pictures of the building, try to get the best reflection of everything on the water, a group of men passed by and teased him. "She is better than the buildings and bridge, focus on her". And we were laughing. I know that my husband loves taking pictures with
reflection, so that did not hurt me.

Another place that we loved at Prague is
Narodni Museum. We took a lot of pictures, with flowers and statue. There is a '
rambla' in front of this museum and many people sit and enjoy the view. Magnificent!
Roses everywhere! My
faveIf my mom was here, she will love this too. I mean the flowers, and she loves me,
claro!
This is the view in front of the statue at
Narodni Museum, the '
rambla' I had been talking about.
We let her free, polishing her walking skill, but it came with price. Dirty hands and pants.

Zara was clapping her hand happily. I think she likes the camera just like me.
A happy family, yuppee!!

After a tired walk, it was either the park or restaurant. We were hungry but she did not like waiting for the food.
Luckily, when she tossed around, almost to crack a wail, the waiter saw this and came with crayons and some drawing. She was amazed by the new things. I never gave her crayons, afraid that it will go to either her mouth or eyes, but she managed well. So, next trip, I have to be like Kak Akma, stuff in lots of colouring books and crayons.

A quick pose with Chopin, and the wind hated me this time. I looked....terribly bad

Cuban bar is popular in Prague, and the cool vintage car added to the Cuba-ness

This man can sax very good. He reminded me of Sheila Majid - cool Jazz

Another photo-obsession of my husband is to take picture at night. I think he is good with it just like the reflection. Here are some of his take.
Well, what do you think?
