Hej, arrived yesterday in Berlin with Loth & the flu. Felt terrible & spent the majority of the day and night in bed. Thankfully we have a nice house to stay in - Mario from Spain was kind enough to put us up, even though we only met him in Munich for about 15 mins. I missed the Love Parade last night, though was not overly concerned to miss a bunch of gits prancing around the streets in brightly covered furry garments to bad techno . After Prague Loth & I went on to Cracow, which was a wonderful city & one that we were sorry to leave. Our hostel there seemed so desperate to find customers that we were given a leaflet for it upon boarding the train in Prague & assured that we'd be met at the station in Cracow. Sure enough, when we arrived there, there were people there who were incredibly helpful, spoke fluent English & drove us free of charge to our reasonably priced hospital clean hostel. I'm still trying to figure out what the trick was... After Berlin we're heading back down south through one or all of the following countries - Hungary, Croatioa, Slovakia, Slovenia, Austria, Lichtenstein, Italy. Then will somehow make my way back to little Denmark.

Hello, I am in Prague with Lothlorian & Minton. Somehow plans of a possible trip to Switzerland & Germany mutated into a mad dash around Europe, trying to fit about 10 countries into 1 month. On 4th July Loth & I left Copenhagen and got the train to Munich, where we met up with Minton, Dave May & Wai. Spent 2 night there in a place called 'The Tent' - basically a huge tent with lots of (predominantly) Americans sleeping on the floor. Saw a 'schloss' (castle) & Drachau - the first Nazi concentration camp. On the 7th we headed up here to Prague. Spent yesterday charging around the town after Minton in an attempt to explore half the city in a day. Saw many beautiful sights - cathedrals, bridges and fine views amongst the rest. Loth & I discovered a great dinner venue - apparently one of the few real Czech food places in the area that isn't touristy. I had a lovely meal of 'rake', which is "3 half hollow out toasted potato brimming mixture from piquant pork meat namely regaling mixture cheese." Highly recommended. Better than it sounds, I assure you. Think I'll go back tonight to try something which also sounded delicious: "chicken meat modification on way Chinese kitchen".
