Chestnuts are everywhere at the Vyšehrad Castle grounds. Like a lot of people in Prague we too spent some time collecting them in the park, perhaps a bit more than others. We each took our turn throwing a stick at the trees to shake some down. Then it got a bit windy and we went running form the chestnuts bombardment. Great time.
For decoration or food/roasting? 🙂
We are professional amateurs – so for decoration only.
I you want to become even more amateur (likely not…), then here’s a suggestion: in Denmark everyone collects them and then makes figures out of them with matchsticks. Think of all the figures you could make out of yours!!
We used to do this in Poland at school. I remember how hard it was to use a knife to make a hole for the matchsticks to fit in. With our supply we should be able to reproduce the Berlin Zoo.
Tremendous. And my previous comment. Should read *if you…. Not I you…. Humor lost -_-
