People, Places, Property

Scenes from around Graz:
Heiße Maroni (roasted chestnuts) are in season.
There are little stands all over the city. I'm familiar with the Christmas song "Chestnuts roasting on an open fire" but never had one...
I think they are a bit of an aquired taste. Better the second time, but DO NOT eat them without water, they're very dry! I think the idea is more romantic than the reality, but peeps sure love them around here.
