Afternoon Nap


Walking past the Edinburgh Castle Hotel yesterday afternoon on my way home I saw this exhausted soul having a nap, looks like he has a full "Schooner of New" (that is a size and type of beer in Sydney). I walked about 10 more metres and decided to go back and take the picture. This is a beautiful inner city pub which has a mixture of patrons from the office to the blue collar.

  1. Yeah, I agree that it is a nice looking pub. The Criterion on the corner of Park & Pitt is nice too. I wonder if his beer is still there when he wakes up?
