Prague single ride

Am I too late or too early. As usually both.  Here they sell subway tickets valid for half hour. Or maybe they need to revive the Firemen's Ball

RM Rilke

Of course, my first stop in Prague. Rilke. Sat at a table with pictures of Schiller, Goethe andr Heine. The great three. a Dichter Quartet with RM.  On the menu kelbasa.  Truly Mittel Europe.
Strangely  the beer was called Krusovice.  Sounded like Khruschev.

Cafe Central troika

Had Sacher Torte at Cafe Central.  What else. Of course some calf liver. Only later found out that Trotsky, Stalin and Hitler used to come here. Drank the same Milch around 1913. Probably with lots os sugar.
The owners do not advertise this. Why? Maybe it would become a pelerinage site.

Kokoshka

They still sell on Vienna's streets Alma Mahler dolls. To have sex with the most intellectual lover of past century. This is not pornography, it is erotik something.

Timepieces

Amazed by the number of stores selling ultra fine watches - Schaffhausen, Patek,
Wagner, Brequet, Omega, Longines, etc. Who buys these anymore?  The entire city is selling the time past.
