With a tent like that in your front yard, full of music and revellers – how can you not have a sleepless night.
Might as well look at the stars and indulge in a bit of astrology: If the big pitcher tilts over the glass of the Dodging Dune your head will hurt in the morning.
Double-dipping for FOWC with Fandango: Tent and
Ragtag Daily Prompt, either Sleepless or Astrology, whatever.

Yesterday I showed the Great Synagogue of Plzeň. I had climbed up the tower of the Cathedral of St. Bartholomew to take the photo. The spire is with 103 m the highest in the Czech Republic, that’s the whole structure, of course, I was standing a few metres below. The view was amazing, showing a sea of roofs. The buildings get more modern the further you look away from the centre of town. It’s like a history of different pasts.

The Great Synagogue of Plzeň in the Czech Republic has the loveliest pink spires. The first stone was laid in 1888 and it is the second largest synagogue in Europe, and the third largest in the world. It was used as a place of worship in the past, survived the second world war as a storage hall, was shortly revived as a Jewish place of worship during communism but soon closed down as there wasn’t a large enough Jewish community to maintain the building. It was finally restored towards the end of the last century and is today used for various cultural events and is open to the public.

We spent the weekend before last in Prague and our accommodation was in high-rise student dormitories.
The buildings were basic and well used. The windows were somehow warped which made for nice effects.
