Timeline: September 13th – 15th We packed up camp the morning of our departure in wet conditions, not to be recommended if you can avoid it. It had rained all night but it let up a bit in the morning just enough to allow us to pack the tent away damp, but not soaked. In […]
The first paragraph of the post describing the socks should have read Editors Note: I forgot to include one very important article of clothing in my list in the last post. These would be the socks I have lived in, two different styles of Smartwool products. With tennis shoes and shorts I’ve been wearing the […]
Timeline: September 11th – 13th Editors Note: I forgot to include one very important article of clothing in my list in the last post. These would be the socks I have lived in, two different styles of Smartwool products. With tennis shoes and shorts I’ve been wearing the mini sock and with my Gore Tex […]
Timeline: September 7th – 10th Our last day in Vienna would be simple; laundry in the morning and a visit to Schloss Schoenbrunn in the afternoon. One of the advantages of travel today is the wide variety of clothing one can use to make it easier, particularly travel on the run. During my earlier journeys, I […]
Timeline: September 7th – 10th Determined to ride the next day, Tuesday, we conferred with the girls next door. After having ridden their bikes from Frankfurt, they were up each day for biking outings in and around Vienna. We asked them about places to ride and they confirmed that the island near camp was the place […]
Timeline: September 7th – 10th Although just a short 200 kilometers (126 miles) drive from Cesky Krumlov to Vienna from a mileage perspective, the need to take country roads in the Czech Republic added extra driving time to the trip. We entered Austria a couple of hours after noon and stopped for gas at an OMV […]
Timeline: September 3rd – 6th The next two days (we decided to stay one more night) would be devoted to enjoying Cesky’s beautiful outdoors and some predicted nice weather. We’d also take advantage of our warm and dry indoor conditions making use of the very slow Wi-Fi (with good coverage I can load a blog […]
Timeline: September 3rd – 6th The drive to Cesky Krumlov took some time, all of it being on small roads with lots of speeding up and slowing down. We stopped in a little town for a bite to eat in the early afternoon, a truck stop of sorts, ordering a hamburger, fries and a coffee, […]
Timeline: August 29h – September 2nd Our second day in town would be taken up with a visit to Prague Castle. Perched high atop the city in the Castle Quarter. For more than a thousand years Czech leaders have ruled from Prague Castle. We entered the grounds from Castle Square, the beginning of 1,500 feet […]
Timeline: August 29h – September 2nd The drive to Prague went easy, mostly autobahn as we left Germany, then small country roads in the Czech Republic. Toll roads in this country are paid for with a sticker you purchase and place in the car. We stopped at a gas station just inside the country to […]
