Well, I was honestly afraid to do so :D didn't want to be attacked by some furious local in the language I don't understand :D but we had plenty of them in lemonades and cocktails! Thank you for stopping by Edgar!
Very clever of you not to pick lemons. I remember my grandfather (farmer, NY, USA) and the whole family would be indignant when a tourist stopped to pick apples that temptingly hung from a tree. To the tourist it was an innocent gesture. To my grandfather, it was a theft of livelihood. As a child I was astonished by his anger, but now, as an adult who has had to earn a living, I can see his point.
This is a wonderful post. A vivid virtual journey. I will check out your others.
I would never do it :) I do understand your grandfather as I'm from a farmers family myself and I know that my grandfather would react the same if somebody would take whatever he planted. Even I was asking for a permission when I wanted to pick a tomato :D
Thank you for stopping by! I hope you will like the other ones too! :)
