PhotoHunt: Plastic - Chairs outside Cafe Lavena, Venice
Journaling:
Lavena Cafe doesn’t open ‘til 10am. Pity I’m two hours early.
The Piazza San Marco glossy cafes don't open until 10 or even later, in the morning. So we have to get our first cappuccino a few blocks away. Then we go and sit on the plastic seats outside the cafes and people watch.
This is my latest PhotoHunt entry.

Yellow plastic chairs around the open air space.. cool.
Hi Leslie, Ahh Vencie! Perfect photohunt selection for this week. I loved your photo and design. Great seeing you relaxing there and reading your journal entry was cool too!
Wonderful! Makes me smile on this Friday morning. Have a fabulous weekend Leslie!
Nice take on the theme this week. I'd love to be sitting there right now.
What a wonderful place to people watch!
Awww... too bad for the early patronage. Did you manage to get your cup of drink in the end??

What a delightful shot for plastic and also for waiting. You always do such a great job with the themes.
Perfect catch for photohunt's theme...Happy weekend! Hope you can visit mine too...
Well, at least you got prime seating! :-) Fun post, this week! I've got mine up, too!
oh i love the vibrance of this yellow chairs. so nice to look at.
Nothing like people watching in Venice,that's for sure. They look quite bright don't they?
Happy weekend Leslie.
Oh you look gorgeous and the chair are just colorful. Happy weekend. Mine is ready also.
Nice yellow plastic chairs! Thanks for the visit.
Those chairs are plastic? If I hadn't been told, would have thought they were rattan or something like that!
those chairs r too close for comfort. But I like the cheery yellow!
I like the color yellow, we've got these chairs around, but mostly in pale beige...yucks!
nice one!
i love its bold yellow.
Great take on the theme - you look so relaxed and comfortable in that chair...*smile*
Really like those yellow plastic seats!
Amazing that those seats are not tied up when the cafe is closed. That's what they have to do over here for others the chairs might be stolen!! Especially such lovely ones.
The last time I was in Venice was 2003, during the awful heatwave. We used to do that thing of getting up early and being active before the heat - and, like you, finding many places shut. But it's a lovely time to wander around. Your post has whetted my appetite to return. :)
I always enjoy people-watching! that's a lovely place, even without coffee.
Happy hunting and happy weekend :)
I loved people-watching on my one and only trip to Venice. Ok, I confess ... I love people-watching wherever I am! Great photo hunt choice! Almost as good as mine! Tee hee!

How nice. I would need coffee long before 10:00 am, as well. Blessings!
Classy plastic design.
We had plenty of plasti cameras of the same vintage that broke down.
I have at least six cameras over forty years old that I use - not plastic though.
Aloha from Maui!
Love the yellow outdoor chairs. Excellent choice of picture for this week's PH theme.
Hope you stop by mines.

Oh!
I simply love your shots - they make me feel safe in some sort of way :)
Have a great weekend!

Great capture. It would be good for mellow yellow Monday too!
Wow! bright yellow chairs. They would probably wake you up faster than the coffee. Nice design and nice choice. Have a great weekend.
Your photo brightened my day!
I love the bright yellow color.
What a wonderful place! Such bright yellow chairs have to put a person in a sunny mood.

I love the yellow... great shot. So peaceful and quiet... just wait until opening time.
Mine is up here.
Great picture, perfect for this week's PH theme!
Wait can be such a bore. Great shot though! Happy PH! :-) Mine is up!
yellow is such a happy color, even while you're waiting. Hope you can stop by to view my photo hunt Thanks so much.
I love those yellow plastic chairs :) I almost posted a photo of them for this week's theme. Nice design.
I love the color of the chairs! Nice post, by the way.
The early bird gets the worm,but not the coffee ;)
People watching is a wonderful way to spend a day :)
I had a bunch of posts to catch up with. They were good too!!! Thanks
What a beautiful photo, Leslie! You are so talented to "frame" them like that.
It's just about warm enough to put some chairs out in northern Michigan. Think I'll paint one yellow!
Nice design, Leslie.
