It's a little too much touristy for my liking these days, but Prague is alright.
On behalf of all Czechs not from Prague: there's plenty more to see in the rest of the country! I, for example.

Yes, loads of tourists. But they are there for a reason, the place is awesome. :) And I'm really impressed by the english skills of pretty much everyone, young and old people. My mother was the only one that's been there before, but it was like 25 years ago, and she remembered having to use german quite a bit.

Thanks for the ride Nordhbane!
Hope I can visit Prague one day, such a beautiful city and full o history too.

Indeed. The only place I personally feel like I missed visiting was the church built with skeleton parts. Completely forgot to look for it. I've only heard about it and now I just re-remembered it. :)

I hope it was an awesome trip, Nordh, and that your Mom had a wonderful birthday! :D

Thanks. She didn't know where we were going, or that we were coming with, or how she would get there. She found out we were coming with the day before since we live close to the airport so they stayed the night with us. But it wasn't until we were at the gate and she saw the boarding-sign that she knew where to, like 2 minutes before she stepped on the plane. :)
When she turned 50 we visited Stonehenge, it had been a dream of hers since she was young to celebrate her 50th there.

Bumps for the train :) What kind of cake (if any) did you have at the birthday party?
Comment has been collapsed.
We ate some cake the day before we left. Strawberry mousse-like cake.

That's simply amazing. Imagine how that's been carved straight out of the mountain. It's almost like they tried a few different versions to see how they wanted to make it.
I wouldn't want to fly to Turkey at the moment though, with all the turbulence in the country.

Yeah I wouldn't recommend either. We have such a beautiful country but not so beautiful people.
Comment has been collapsed.
Yeah, Turkey has been on my top10 list before because of the beautiful scenery, hopefully it can climb up on the list again. :)

Thanks, but I'm not home. Went back to Aaland islands. ;) Still a week left of vacation.

It's a lot of lovely nature. My parents in law have built a house and moved there, so we're living in their house while we have a vacation. It's just wonderful for relaxation and getting away from the cities. So it's quite the opposite experience compared to Prague. There are a lot of cottages to rent where you can go out paddling in canoes in the sea if you don't have a house to stay in.
This is the view from the room where we have our computers in (we brought them with us since we were going to be here for almost a month, bar the Prague-weekend):

Oh, yes, it sounds (and looks) like a great place to get away :)

That's a really good picture!
Here's a picture of the Octopus Tree, which is located a few hundred feet from Cape Meares Lighthouse on the Oregon Coast. (I haven't actually been there yet, myself.)

i agree Prague is great, and beer was cheaper than sparkling water when i was in there :D
thanks for a nice train

Yeah, I saw the check for a lunch we had where the coke cost as much as the beer. :) Overall, almost all the price-numbers were similar to Sweden, but then you had to divide by 3 to get the translated cost. :D

Several times I passed through Prague by bus, unfortunately, I never had a chance to really see him.

Back from a weekend in Prague with my wife and my parents, celebrating my mom's 60th birthday. Let me tell you, that city has some fantastic and gorgeous architecture. All the buildings are full of details, handmade carvings and paintings. There's a lot of public art and you can't throw a stone in any direction without hitting something worth looking at.
So since I'm back from my travels, here's a choo-choo.
Here's the most random thing I saw, yellow penguins on parade at the river side. What are your most random art discoveries?
