Penzion Centrum Kutna Hora

... then went out for a beer or so and some food in Prague, near the beautiful Charles Bridge, which I finally checked out, and took tons more pictures.<br><br>After dinner and drinks I came back home with Madlenka, and here I am, super pooped out and trying to catch up with all of my pictures and videos...<br><br>That's about it for now! I think I'll go walking around town for a bit tomorrow with Casey, one of the girls I've met from the course.<br><br>Word..<br>

A late start at 11. I am starving with my need for breakfast. We opt for sausage on the run to the train station for our day trip to Kutna Hora. It is excellent with a choice of 5 types. <br><br>Kutna Hora is a Unesco town, 1 hour by train from Prague. A nice day trip. The first stop, a 15 minute walk from the station, is a Cathedral, the oldest Baroque one in Europe. It has recently completed a very long restoration. The highlight though, was the Sedlec ...

I got a little excited when we were planning this trip &#8211; driving for about 1.5hours from Prague and we are on the German border! From Adelaide I can get to Goolwa, or Mannum, in that time &#8211; not really the same&#8230; I think I was the only one excited though - it's all normal for everyone else.<br><br>We went to see Prav&#269;ická Brána, in the north of the country, which is a ...

Again another place that had been recommended to me by people I had met on the way - and I think when that happens (especially by so many) you start to get images in your head of what to expect...<br> <br>There is a stunning cathedral &amp; jesuit colledge in Kutna Hora - the former, like most that I have ventured past/into - it's under construction... a rather cynical local told me - that ...

... Kutna Hora is a UNESCO World Heritage Listed town which started in 1142 due to silver mining in the area. We walked through the main square and up the statue lined street to the Church of St Barbara, a massive 13th Century Gothic structure with some unique gargoyles. Other interesting buildings in the town include the Stone House, the Stone Fountain, the Convent, and St ...

... pieces one by one down the small train lavetory. Perhaps this was a one off bad luck thing... but I doubt it. We arived back in Krakow the same night in time to check into a hastily organised hostel called "Good Bye Lenin"... an interesting comfortable and friendly hostel filled with russian occupation posters and memorabelia. From there we set off and travelled to Vilnius in Lithuania via Warsaw, Polands capital ... but thats another story.

... white coats and miners lights and headed into the dark tunnels. About 40 meters below the surface, no lights except our tourches lite the way. The tunnels were not designed for people my height so to say the least I was glad to have a helmet. At one point the tunnel got to 1 meter high and only 50 cm wide. I wasn't feeling all that great in there and was kind of looking forward to the light of day. Underground lakes, water dripping from the ...

... rough story is that there were quite a lot of bodies buried there during the plague and the Hussite war and at some point a half blind monk was forced to stack up the bones to make room for more. Eventually someone had the kooky idea that the bones could be used for ornamental purposes. Anyway, herë's some photos. It was an amazing, disturbing place.

... Its a very strange and macabre place, but it sounded too interesting to pass up. The town also had a few other sights, so we walked around and came across an excellent view of the old city and also found a nice gothic cathedral with massive flying buttresses, Cathedral of St. Barbara. That night we all went with Rusty to "his girls" topless club, and, well...the girls, and particularly his girl, were pretty amazing. So amazing in fact that good ...

... 371; viet&#371; visoj &#268;ekijoj. Apvaziavom visas vietas pazym&#279;tas visuose zem&#279;lapiukuose, ta&#269;iau laisvos vietos vis tiek niekur neradom. Sugaisom tam geras por&#261; valand&#371;, ta&#269;iau rezultato jokio. Jau temo, o mes be vietos nakvynei ir dar alkani. Kadangi v&#279;liau vakare zinojom, kad net valgyt negausim, nusprend&#279;m, kad jei nerandam kur nakvot, tai bent pavalgykim, kad neb&#363;t&#371; abiej&#371 ...
