Autumn in Pruhonice

Image
Pruhonicky Park is a botanical garden near the highway from Prague to Brno and is a very beautiful parc with many plants and many small lakes with fish. The pathways are easy to walk and so it makes a nice relaxing sunday afternoon walk. But be aware that you are not the only one having this idea :-) It can get crowdy during nice weather on weekends. Entrance fee is 50CZK per adults and kids up to 6 are free. Parking is 30CZK/hour IF a space is available. If not you cna park in the village near by. It is good to combine this park with the Aquapalace aqua parc in Pruhonice only 1km away! Lani had fun yesterday....

Sailing in Prague?

Image
Here is the marina of Prague. Most of the boats are small because if you want to sail on the Moldau you need to take the mast down anyway. There are also some catamarans but also rather small ones. Today it was sunny with a little bit of wind and some sailboats were underway using the wind.

The bathing monster!

A weekend in Prague

Hi, this weekend we had many visitors: Karin and Heinz, Sarah and Monty plus Eric. Just when we wanted to leave the old part of the city in the afternoon we heard strange shouting and saw people in weird outfits. It was a "flashmob", a gathering of people to perform things and they met to dance to Michael Jacksons song "Thriller". Here is a video from that event:

Some Prague impressions

This is the block where our appartment is. The old street train is still cruising around and makes a nice scenic ride. The tower with the astronomical clock below. You can actually walk up and enjoy the scenery from there. here another view onto the clock. Grilling the famous Prague ham in the street. Some flowers and old buildings....

Lani pics

Here are some pictures of Lani in the citycenter while having dinner. She got some crayons and paper from the waiters and was drawing and playing. Then she even got a balloon and was happy. It was only around 2100 when we reached home and she went to bed. I was happy because of the Hägen Dasz shop behind her :-)

Waiting for a good weather window ..... What to do? Watch the worldcup and work a little bit and organizing things. These pictures are from a "family viewing event" in Matthias barn. Two grills were used for the BBQ and around 30 people showed up. We won 4:0 and i hope this will continue today....
