Posture
There are all kinds of sitters in the cafe. The one below had the best posture.

The Meeting
All the participants were present at the coffeehouse. Nobody had to wait. Good thing.

All seemed to be in their own world.
Big Puff, Little Puff
I think I waited a bit too long before snapping this shot. Little Puff was a little larger just a couple of minutes before I got the sun out of my eyes enough to take the picture.
