Cesky Krumlov

Well I have spent the last two days in the beautiful Cesky Krumlov , a little town outside of Prague. We had the most gorgeous weather on the first day so we hung out in the castle gardens and down by the river. Some went swimming. It was sooo lovely. We then went out for a lovely dinner and then roamed the streets eating ice cream and listening to jazz music that was drifting up from the banks of the river. In the evening we wandered up to the castle and saw Cesky by night thenwent back down to the the jazz club where the service was so bad it took 45 minutes to get the drinks and then they charged us 20kc per person for a jug of tap water. It was soo silly....
but we had the greatest night.
Cesky is just such a chilled out amazing place. The first afternoon saw half the people on the bus organizing to stay here an extra two nights rather then going on to Vienna.

Yesterday we got up really late and did some more wandering. Then we hired some rafts and got driven up the river and spent the rest of the day drifting downstream on a boat. It was meant to be a pub crawl where you stop off occasionally to jump out and get more beer. It was lots of fun. I fell out of the boat once but even though outside was cold the water wasn't too bad. (It's ok Oma I don't have a cold :) ). So anyway in an hour I'll be on my way to Vienna which should be lots of fun!!! I hope to go to a concert when I get there.
Lots of love to all
