  Waiting.....and waiting...........

I don't know if this is a Krakowian custom, or a Polish one, but I did notice how many long-stemmed red roses were being carried by young ladies obviously out on dates with gallant young gentlemen. It's a rather lovely idea actually..........

The poor chap in the picture spent 30 minutes waiting for his date in Rynek Glowny, his rose gradually drooping lower and lower. I did feel sorry for him.........and I didn't see her turn up...........

Review Helpfulness: 4.5 out of 5 stars
