What an amazing place to read early in the morning. You inspire me to go walking and discover early in the morning.
ReplyDeleteMarilyn,
Deletethe only way, very early - before 8 AM - to do some walking during this heatwave we are under right now. Record temperatures for June yesterday, more so today, going to hit 100° F.
Just amazing and inspiring pictures, Merisi!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Sonia! :-)
DeleteLooks like a pretty interesting place to sit.
ReplyDeleteIndeed, great view included!
DeleteI love the drama of those first two shots!
ReplyDeleteThose soaring columns are quite impressive, aren't they?
DeleteYou captured the beautiful weather there...
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, yes, a tad to hot, I'd say (thank heavens, so far none of those terrible thunderstorms like the ones that hit the East Coast recently).
DeleteWhat a beautiful spot for reading, like an old library - serious, majestic, in the company of Greek philosophers (the statues?) and the guy coordinates well with the blue sky in the background (blue shirt) :-)
ReplyDeleteZosia,
Deletethe reader's in the company of Greek and Roman historians. the ones in the picture should be Thucydides and Polybius.
Loved the reader but also the Farmers' Market pictures below.
ReplyDeleteHappy 4th, dear Merisi!
Thank you, Elizabeth!
DeleteHappy 4th of July to you t00,
Merisi
An unusual place to read a book...
ReplyDeleteIndeed! :-)
Delete(Maybe he was reading in a guide book!)
thanks for commenting on my skywatch. I notice you are from Vienna, Austria-I traveled there in 1964-many moons ago as part of a folk dance tour from Brigham Young University.
ReplyDeleteYou are welcome!
DeleteThey say Vienna has changed much since then. Brighter, more cosmopolitan.
