Fly, arrive, and Prague!

Ok typing on iPhone so may be short! Ace & Buffe arrived with no problem. David & Becky another story. Flight from Denver was cancelled so rebooked on Luftansa leaving 5 hrs later.
Prague is quite beautiful. The buildings are of a style from back back back in the day! Went to the Black Ox for beers. The 2 servers tried their best to dissuade the tourists from feeling welcome but we perservered. Sat bent to a drunk who's English was limited to'twist em' right, thist em' left, do the shimmy shimmy shake!" 8 pints of great beer for $8. Dinner roast beef covered w/ plum sauce & whipped cream. You could cutin w/ a fork and it was delish. Today the Castle, walking tour by Ace, and beer !!

Getting Ready


This trip was inspired by our Granmother Edith Zini Evans. Her parents were from Budapest and Tivat. Thus we journey! This Blog is inspired by the Blog ( elnomad.com/tolatitude000.php ) of my friends Rebecca & Arturo and so I will Blog my way throught the Balkens. As of today its 7 days until we leave for Prague - our starting point. Our advance scounts, Patty and Tony LeDonne, have been sending tips on bars, pubs, and wine bars so we are prepared!
