Hotel Nike Karlovy Vary

... head….goooodddd jobbb!!! That’s my rant for the day!

Well after that we looked for the spas and couldn’t find where to go and then we looked for the tourist office and couldn’t find where to go and we looked for parking and couldn’t find where to go….overall Karlovy Vary was a bust for us so before the frustration set in we decided to head on out to our next destination. Life’s too short to look for parking!

... pan and cook our first dinner this week, so not all bad.

in karlovy vary we buy the teeniest tiniest cup and try some water from every fountain. some taste like blood and we wonder if we have reached dracula country early. oh well, at least we will probably live a few extra years according to the, ah hem, medical advice.

... an instant head ache so didn’t have any more. Len seemed to enjoy it.

The town is very beautiful, lots of fancy painted buildings, beautiful flowers, and flower boxes. Lots and lots of restaurants for all those tourists walking around with their cups drinking the water.

There are also an incredible number of spas treating digestive system diseases, metabolism defects, diseases of the locomotive organs and ...

... sausages for lunch. Was half cut - half a litre of beer with jetlagg...interesting combination.

Flew from Prague on the dodgiest little plane, Jarrad was pulling sticky tape off the cabin and announcing outloud that we might not make it alive. Hmmmmm they also made the mistake of asking him to complete the customer survey...

Went out on the bikes yesterday to explore town. Amazing - bus loads of tourists arrive here daily. Photos don't do it justice.

We took a day trip to this beautiful crystal and spa town. It is noted for its water. People come from all over. It is suppose to help ailments of all kinds. There are several places in town that sell ceramic vases to use to drink from the fountains throughout the city. We strolled around for several ...

Wow! What a gorgeous town this is! The accomodations and hostess have been amazing and there are so many neat things to see and do here. We have spent our time visiting family and friends and at each we have been enjoying reminiscing about Mirek's family's time living here and looking at old photos which has been so interesting! One of our excusions was to a look-out above the town and took a cable car to get there, the veiws were beautiful especially of the ...

Well folks, sorry we have not had a more recent update upon our return from Croatia (we're thankful that the flight was a safe one, the take off was rough., we took off in a windstorm and weren't sure wether we would lift off or be blown off the runway). Upon our return we spent several days hanging out with the various relatives in Prague. We made another visit to Wenceslas Square and tried to visit Jaromir Jagr's bar on the square ...

... why I love going back so often. It was the most amount of food we have eaten so far and the parties weren't too far behind either. Denmark to Berlin where we stayed a few days and did the touristy sights. Neither of us realised what a cool city it was before we arrived. It is a place to go for sure!! From Berlin we took a train to the Czech Repbulic ...

Karlovy Vary, another little side trip.... Would you believe that it only cost us $25 USD round trip to go to this cute little town?! About 2 hours by bus, Karlovy Vary, is a well known spa town in the western part of Czech Republic. One thing that can be said about the transit system in town is that its confusing! They have a pretty extensive bus system for such a small town, but hopping on the wrong ...

... or two nights there.

It is not a big trip actually, if I am not mistaken it is about 2 hours from Prague, however the whole trips is interesting because you drive throuh huge thick forests and hills with beautiful colorful hills on either side of the road.

A place that mustn't be missed!
We left with the best impressions.
