Camping in the Czech Republic & Germany

A long day on the bus as we left Vienna and headed for Prague. Another delicious and expensive schnitzel for lunch in the world heritage town of Cesky Krumlov broke the day up a little bit. We had enough time for a quick walking tour of Prague before heading to the campsite. The next day was a free day where most of us visted the lets say the 'interesting & weird' sex museum, wandered through Old Town Square, and then joined a cruise with another buffet lunch. The afternoon was spent enjoying pouring your own beers at the beer factory, Irish pubs, live music and helium balloons at an election campaign and then finishing up in the famous 5 storey nightclub!

The funniest statue in Europe! You can even send a text message to a number and the fella to the left of me will write it out in the water for you!

Myself & Hayley - This wall of mist was a clear winner in the 5 storey nightclub


Back on the bus after 2 fun nights in Prague and next on our list was the beer capital of the world, Munich. After setting up tents it was then straight off to a beer hall for some steins! For dinner we had a traditional pork knuckle with some tasty crackling on top! With the steins flowing freely, live dancing, patriotic singalongs, cow bells and 3 other contiki groups attending the same beer hall things got very loud and extremely fun very quickly! With a few steins under the belt we headed to the famous Hofbrauhaus for some more gold ales and of course some more fun times.

Dinner time! Pork knuckle! Yum! And see that weird cricket ball shaped thing.... It was supposed to be potatoe but tasted more like stale fart!



Beer time - 5 in each hand!

A few sore heads the next morning with a walk around the streets of Munich. We made it in time to see the famous Glockenspeil go off - it isn't really that exciting! We then made a visit to the Dachau concentration camp memorial which had a great museum detailing the horrific events that occured during the Holocaust. After an action packed few days we made our way back to the campsite for an early bed in preparation for our next stop, the Swiss Alps.
