FANTASTICKÁ PRAHA

4 days in fantastic Prague, & just learnt enough Czech to say please & thank you. 

The last time we were here was 25 years ago for my birthday, on a whistle-stop tour mainly spent in bars and the old town. We didn't even have time to do the castle. 

This time we had almost 4 days, and could really get under the skin of the place. Kim found us a great Hotel, 3 minutes walk from the main underground line to the centre of town, and boy did that work out well. As an added bargain, it was just off one of the smartest squares in the posh residential district of town. Loads of great cafes & restaurants on our doorstep. There was even a keg bar called BeerGeek, with 32 taps of the Ambrosia of the gods. 

The highlights for us?

An open top classic car tour of the city, 

A stroll across Charles Bridge, 

The company,

A boat trip on the Vltava,

A wander around the castle, 

The old town, 

A coffee in Old Town Square,

The Churches,

An underground Prague tour, 

A trip to St Norberts monastery, 

A tram journey up past the Castle,

and two visits to Mincovna restaurant for some top nosh, and of course BeerGeek 😁

Snaps are to be found here-
