Prague weekend (and a little Budapest at the end), Sept 7-12, 2006

funfunfun in prague, one of those weekends when it feels like you do a lot of things, and nothing, all at the same time. (the best kind) i wasn't too picture crazy but here goes of what i did take...



awesome arrival as maria's dress at the airport had the every guy preceding me out of the gate pleading that 'i'm mr krueger!' (she had the sign made up and everything...) it was super fun playing dress up! though my suit was very warm and her heels hurt, so before changing we snapped some shots to document our considerable hottness.

#1 = the 'fuck off'



#2 = the 'get yer guns out'



#3 = the 'bathtub'..?? (okay it seemed like a good idea at the time)



an internet buddy had recommened nebe on thursday which was right on target... cool vibe good music



hanging in nebe...



as i was up getting drinks, random mexican comes up for picture war with maria so i have like 10 shots of this dude.



on the way home you can see how talented we are at disguise. maria at keeping a straight face, and me at keeping my hands still, after i don't wanna know how many jaeger/beer combos.



next day at billiards maria demonstrating her 'on knee up on the table' strategy... bridge sticks are for pussies anyway, right?



the results i suppose speak for themselves. i love the head bang on the lighting afterward for full effect. TOOFUCKING CUTE



later, at the 'beatbar' which didn't play one beatles song the whole time while there (nor have any other customers) maria doing her best impression of paul mccartney... you see the resemblance right?



okay okay, NOW you see the resemblance. i know, you were thinking, 'well, she kind of looked like paul mccartney, but what was missing were the dinasour claw fingerhands!' yep, i know that's what you were thinking.




some escalator descending with philip and maria



dropping down to the underground....



and later above the underground where i was not sly enough to escape the notice of my walking companions



i'm not sure if 'trnka' means 'gloryhole' in czech, but this one in maria's door looked damn suspiciously like one, except that it was at chest high level. so i don't know, a gloryhole for the czech basketball team?




the second night we were kinda pooped out from the first so decided to stay in for ipod war/quizzes/drunkdial/lighting matches on bottle of gin... as you do...

maria demonstrating that with enough patience ANYBODY can light a match on a bottle of gin. (hint: just don't try it if it ain't bombay sapphire)




ipod stupid fun



gettin' crazy with some old school scorpions



The super ghetto mural that must've been painted by kids with the aforementioned dinasour claw fingerhands, outside the pool we swam at on saturday. I love the happy look of the shark before he realizes how small and unsatisfying that fish will taste.



More ipod wars! on our final night before heading out to meet Hindeja...

And that was that: Maria thanks for ev. we gotsta do it again before long!

back to budapest....



on tuesday there were some galleries on opposite sides of the street by my flat, having simultaneous openings... the parties spilled out onto the street...



yep....



but could only hit the galleries for so long as we had to do a big wine sample for Vittula's upcoming year selection....



sample sample sample!



Tamara (aka, the 'Hungarian Amelie') demonstrating what she knows so well. Still, i can never get used to 'spitting back in the bowl' thing
