Thursday 26 June

It took us about 40 min to drive through Prague's morning traffic, but then we zoomed along, through countryside more hilly and wooded than previously seen.

We reached Cesky Krumlov at about noon. This is a small town in southern Czech Rep., with a UNESCO listed mediaeval castle and town at the centre.



It is on a couple of bends in the Vltava River, which goes on through Prague. We have been given a suite of rooms in the owner's house, right down by the riverside. (Our window is the bottom left hand of the house on the left.)

We went for a walk around town after lunch. The river flows quickly, with some small rapids, and canoe and raft excursions are very popular.


After tea we walked through town again to take night-time photos.
