A Praga hi ha desenes de parelles de lluna de mel que aprofiten per tornar-se a fer les fotos de casament en llocs emblematics de la ciutat; la majoria son asiatiques. O potser es casen allà mateix no se....<br /> I evidentment, totes van acompanyades del fotograf.<br /> <br /> Aquesta parella em va cridar l'atenció, ella era preciosa, però ell... mireu, l'amor deu ser cec!<br /> <br /> =====================<br /> <br /> It's incredible how Prague is packed with newly wed couples that recreate their wedding in the city, I presume during their honeymoon. Or maybe they are just marrying there. Anyway they go to the major iconic spots in trios, with the photographer.<br /> <br /> Most of these couples come from Asia, mostly China I think, like these ones.</p> <p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/7455207@N05/">SBA73</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/7455207@N05/42355038890/" title="Quin lloc per la classe de gimnàs / Unusual gymn"><img src="http://farm2.staticflickr.com/1833/42355038890_d1faeb5027_m.jpg" width="167" height="240" alt="Quin lloc per la classe de gimnàs / Unusual gymn" /></a></p> <p>Es curiós com molt d'hora, al altrament atapeit Pont de Carles, Praga, et pots trobar aquesta escena.<br /> <br /> Una classe d'adolescents fent gimnasia en rotllana al mig del pont, aprofitant que encara no hi ha quasi ningú. Algun mestre txec que m'expliqui si això és usual, per allà?<br /> <br /> <a href="https://ca.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pont_de_Carles" rel="nofollow">ca.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pont_de_Carles</a><br /> <br /> ===================<br /> <br /> I went to the famous and always crowded Charles Bridge in our last morning in Prague to take pictures of it still quite empty or people, but even then I found this group. They looked like a school class doing gymnastics in the middle of the medieval bridge, something you can't doo at noon, that's for sure.<br /> <br /> <br /> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Bridge" rel="nofollow">en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Bridge</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/7455207@N05/">SBA73</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/7455207@N05/42353563960/" title="Calma centreeuropea / Continental calm"><img src="http://farm2.staticflickr.com/1868/42353563960_6a8359f1b8_m.jpg" width="240" height="153" alt="Calma centreeuropea / Continental calm" /></a></p> <p>Les cupules de St. Nicolau de Mala Strana (Kostel svatého Mikuláše) sobresurten apretades entre l'estricta arquitectura gotica i militar de les torres occidentals del Pont de Carles, a Praga.<br /> <br /> Foto presa sense una morterada de gent (a quarts de 8 del matí), la mateixa que ho atapaira tot un parel d'hores després.<br /> <br /> ==========================================<br /> <br /> The baroque cupola &amp; bell tower of St. Nicholas church (Kostel svatého Mikuláše) appear among the strict gothic towers of Charles Bridge, in Prague.<br /> <br /> Picture taken early in the morning, still with not a hint of the crowd that will pack this place just a couple of hours later.<br /> <br /> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St._Nicholas_Church_" rel="nofollow">en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St._Nicholas_Church_</a>(Mal%C3%A1_Strana)</p> <p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/people/7455207@N05/">SBA73</a> posted a photo:</p> <p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/7455207@N05/44113920212/" title="Impossible embassy"><img src="http://farm2.staticflickr.com/1831/44113920212_e708e1a5f9_m.jpg" width="240" height="179" alt="Impossible embassy" /></a></p> <p>El Lichtenštejnský palác vist des del Pont de Carles. Per tots aquells que heu vist Missió Impossible, aquesta sería l'embaixada americana (la qual realment es troba a només uns 200 metres més a l'interior).<br /> <br /> ===================<br /> <br /> In the real world, this is Lichtenštejnský palác, a baroque palace. But in the alternate world of Mission Impossible, this is the US Embassy where a lot of secret agents are killed right in front of Tom Cruise. The real US embassy lays about 200m. to the right, inside Mala Strana.<br /> <br /> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mission:_Impossible_"
