As you probably know, the definition of "comfy" is different for different cultures. The people in my neighborhood here in southern Taiwan find these chairs outside very comfy. It is very rare to find them vacant like in the above picture.
Each time Gilby and I walk by here there are usually several old men having a conversation and enjoying the cooler outside air.
Isn't that just great that every gets together to chat with the weather a bit cooler and that is comfy for them. :)
ReplyDeleteI bet they are usually occupied!! You had an opportune moment to show us how they look 'empty' tho....great idea for this week's theme.

This is very different, and very interesting!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely thought--an outdoor conversation between friends and neighbors!
ReplyDeleteWe Americans have lost the warmth and charm of front porches and back doors, haven't we?
My Comfy Entry is up!
How nice!
ReplyDelete(My photo is up too.)
cool shot, looks like a great place to hang out! those spots to gather in the neighborhood (wherever that neighborhood may be) are becoming scarce!
ReplyDeleteI miss the times when people would just sit out on their front porches and visit with their neighbors. This is a great comfy pic. :)
ReplyDeleteMine's up too! :)
Yeah, they sure don't look comfy! But maybe it's the fresh air and the company that are the comfy part in those chairs?
ReplyDeleteI played too
whatever makes one comfy! I have a feeling it's more the conversation that makes them comfy. Mine is up http://micheled.blogspot.com/
ReplyDeleteHi Amanda...
ReplyDeleteI've just discovered your blog through Deb at Mountain Musings. I'm enjoying reading about you and Gilby and your adventures in Taiwan. This picture is so neat and reminds me of my little hometown. The elderly men used to sit at the main intersection beside the city hall and enjoy chewing the fat. I'd almost forgotten about that until you shared this picture....good memories.
Amanda, great picture for comfy! As you can see, I'm just catching up on all your posts since I've been out of town. I've enjoyed them all!
