this year, I was in Prague. lovely, lovely Prague (even if it was sprinkling most of the day). I certainly didn’t want to go without some special birthday treat to mark the occasion, so after a morning of wandering around the city I popped into the Prague Bakeshop just a few blocks the fashionable Pařížská and Old Town Square. there, I enjoyed a cup of reasonable Earl Gray tea (the Czech Republic is not known for either its coffee or its tea) and a perfectly delectable white chocolate torte with chocolate crumb crust and fresh raspberries. I was never been much of a white chocolate person, but I do believe the Czech Republic might have me swayed in its favor now and forever.

  • Prague & the Czech Republic
  • the Czech & Slovak Republics
  • The Netherlands
  • Amsterdam, Bruges & Brussels
  • Barbados
  • Vietnam
I read the introduction on Prague & the Czech Republic and at the moment I’m pondering something along the lines of Prague, Munich, maybe Vienna, maybe Berlin. maybe a week, maybe 10 days, maybe two weeks. I’ll certainly have to get on it, though, or the cost of tickets will take off and out of my price range.
