A few words on Brno and photos
Brno is the second largest city in Cz Rep. but not many people go there. I thought it'd be fun to see, and although it lacked some of the drama and charm of, say, Prague, it did have its appeal. The highlights for me were the Castle prison, which ...

Czech Republic Continued
We stopped in another city in the Czech Republic for a couple days to get a feel for a non-touristy area. Brno (Czechs really dont waste their time with vowels, do they?) is on first impression a lot more drab than Prague. Our pension ...
Stupid Birds
Every morning around 4:30 a congregation of loud, annoying, stupid little songbirds begin their destruction of my sleep via chirp, chirp, whistle, etc. I remember when I was a kid there was this bird that would come every morning and sit by my ...
Brno
... perhaps, but the architecture here beats the crap out of ours. Every city we go to is amazing. 4. Cheap, good beer- At least in the Czech. It's the best in the world and costs a buck at a restaurant/bar. Sorry, I am a college guy, so this makes the ...

Mam rad cheske holky (only thing i learnt to say)

Czech countryside and no mishaps
... your own pace. However, once we left Prague and went into the provinces, the castles and chateaux had only guided tours (always in Czech) and just gave you a cheat-sheet with minimal info. in English, but you had to stay with the group – no ...
