Sweet Sounds

Only thing missing was the glass of wine.
I've posted this in "Street Photography" groups because technically it was taken on the street...just happened to be a country lane rather than an urban boulevard.

Grand piano on the sidewalk in front of Parliament. Must have been part of the protest described in my last post.

Against Inhumanity
Via Flickr:
For our day in Vienna, I rented a bicycle and rode all around the city center. In front of Parliament, I met Zäzilia Mayr. She had just participated in a large protest against the Austrian government's inhumanity toward refugees.
I spoke to her for quite a while; her English was okay and my German was non-existent. In 2009, she rode a bicycle from Vienna to Jerusalem (or maybe it was Istanbul) as part of a peace mission. Zäzilia is a writer and poet and blogs at "Sichtweisen". She shared a belief of hers with me: "In every chest there is a heart". Yes, a very interesting person she was. Helped make my day in Vienna a memorable one.

Per Rick Steves, an experience not to be missed. He was right.

Shoes
Via Flickr:
Arriving in Budapest on Yom Kippur, we wanted to visit the Shoe Memorial along the Danube River. This memorial commemorates the Jews who were lined up along the river, tied together and then shot, one person pulling the whole line into the river with them.
A solemn visit on a solemn day.

Czech Guy
Via Flickr:
Walking around one night in Prague, I saw him approaching folks with his hand out. An unusual sight there since most panhandlers take a very subserviant position on their knees with head down and literally hat in hand.
When he approached me, I attempted to speak with him, but he spoke no English and I spoke no Czech. I showed him my camera and a 50 Kc coin and he nodded.
