    Shopping Freidrichstrass & Berlin Mall

    28. juli 2017, Tyskland ⋅ ⛅ 22 °C

    Tram from Wall (Mauer) Museum to Freidrichstrasse via Hauptbahnhoff. A walk down Freidrichstrasse toward Checkpoint Charlie. Soup and I spent a frustrating 40 mins in a restaurant without being served. Walk to Berlin Mall. Soup had Currywurst at a restaurant while Hattie tried to prove Aussies can scream louder than Germans.
    Girls went shopping while Guys took Hattie home.
    Pizza at Il Casolare - take home for our last meal in Berlin.    Læs mere

    Hahn Berlin to Praha

    29. juli 2017, Tjekkiet ⋅ ⛅ 25 °C

    Up early for an Uber to the Hauptbahnhoff. 11.04am train to Prague. Sad farewells to KMH who were driving to Luzern with an overnight in the Black Forest.
    Big stuff up for them with the hire car and baby car seat.
    The train trip from Berlin to Prague was probably the most scenic I have ever experienced.
    Our transfers were very smooth with the 190cm Svetlana settling us in at around 3.30pm.    Læs mere

    Praha

    30. juli 2017, Tjekkiet ⋅ ⛅ 24 °C

    We booked a "free walking tour starting at 10.45am. A little late to get ready so we had a quick croissant with ham and cheese at home for breakfast.
    Ur Canadian Guide Ryan Hume provided an entertaining 4 hour historical tour of old/New Prague. Wenceslas Square was the highlight with Ryan providing details of the Pavel? self torching, he Sprig ____ and the Velvet Revolution.
    We then walked up a hug set of stairs to the Metronome. Beer and Gin con Tonica at the Stalin Bar and a walk to Prague Castle.
    Legs were giving way after staggering down the hill and back across the bridge home.
    A fine dinner at the local Vietnamese followed before collapsing into bed.    Læs mere

    Food and Cultural Tour

    31. juli 2017, Tjekkiet ⋅ ⛅ 29 °C

    Thanks to Mike and Di we had a viator tour voucher to use here. We chose this tour and it was very capably hosted by Vladimir.
    Our first stop was for Roast Duck washed down with Pilsener Urquell. Kim found a local wine to her liking (surprisingly so too was the Duck).Læs mere

    Cesky Krumlov 37 degrees Celsius

    1. august 2017, Tjekkiet ⋅ ⛅ 32 °C

    Arrived here quite early so we had a full half day to explore. We familiarised ourselves with CK by shopping. I was soon tired of this and the heat so I found us a watering hole by the river for some lunch. Pilsener Urquell to wash down a light lunch. Kim went back out shopping so I stayed to savour more of the local produce- Eggenberg Pivo (beer).
    This was the local brew - the brewery was right beside our pensione.
    Kim returned very pleased with her dress purchase. Later we were to realise she left her Tiffany Heart in the dressing room.
    Home to our Pensione - Krumlov Tower.
    I went for a swim in the river joining a host of canoers, kayakers and rafters cooling off. Pasta and Lasagna dinner at Nonna Gina capped off a great day - except for Kim's heart.    Læs mere

    Shooting Zeds and a Pub Dinner

    2. august 2017, Tjekkiet ⋅ ⛅ 26 °C

    Another lunch on the river this time Kim chose the restaurant (poor choice). Beer was good that's all I can say.
    Another trip back to the shop - still closed.
    A slow trudge back to the Tower for an afternoon snooze.
    5pm saw us on the river bank with a wine and a beer watching the river traffic and some local urchins jumping into a water hole.
    Off to Depo for a Chicken Schnitter and Pork Belly and Spinach - excellent.    Læs mere

    3. august 2017, Tjekkiet ⋅ ⛅ 28 °C

    Up pretty early for a 9.50am pick up. Delicious Strudel and Cafe Americano at a quaint cafe. Vienna temps today are expected to be the highest on record.
    This trip is like a Xmas holiday drive up the north coast. Tha Austian countryside looks quite dry. and it is 36 degrees.Læs mere

    Wein to Chania - Crete

    5. august 2017, Østrig ⋅ ⛅ 29 °C

    Up early for a croissant with ham and cheese- then Taxi to the airport. No traffic - Saturday morning. Efficient Austrian check in so loads of time for a coffee in the Panorama Cafe.
    Read UK travel warning that Euros were in short supply from Greek ATMs and to take all your spending money with you. Went to every ATM in the airport - none would give me money.
    Waste of time. ATM in hotel. 😃
    Citygo Skoda Car Hire from Chania airport - pretty easy trip in except for narrow roads and crazy Cretan drivers.    Læs mere
