We were in 3 countries today, Austria, Czech Republic and
Germany.
We got off the boat in Linz, Austria. Travelled by coach to Cesky Krumlov, Czech
Republic. There we spent the morning
with the tour guide, showing us the history of the town. The town has pretty much stayed the same for
centuries and had not been bombed during the Second World War nor damaged
during the time it was a communist country.
Unfortunately some of our group got done by pickpockets,
with one lady losing over $700.
Scott and I went into the Torture Museum, it was very lame. It was dark, and the displays were very
few. I was very disappointed as I was
expecting something really cool, but what do I expect for €5 each.
We had a lovely lunch in a restaurant in the town, and then
headed back to the boat which is docked in Passau, Germany.
The country side in Czech Republic is absolutely beautiful, forests
everywhere.
And I was amazed by the amount of solar panel arrays that
they have.
The weather was not as cold today but it did rain a bit.
Oh and if you leave a comment can you please say who you are as they all come up as anonymous, which makes it hard for us to know who's visited :)

ReplyDeleteThe town was very much untouched by both the war and the communist as they population was very low, it was abandoned at one period.
ReplyDeleteI'll let Mick and Kim know
I don't think your suppose to refer to torture as something cool, not quite PC.. and in your shackle picture , your over dressed and should have tears running down your face, Definitely get a refund the guy didn't do his job properly...
